Yeah, I just thought it might be nice for a python3 port to be available post-2020, which did not require webengine. Essentially because of the fact that some Linux distros do not make webengine available (I discussed the topic recently in the Sigil subforum if you recall).

Either way a python3 beta coming soon sounds quite nice.
