Message 297873 - Python tracker

It seems Guido sets a higher bar on the proposed change.

@pfreixes, if you can show that this change is needed to implement "TCP half-closed" state (i.e. when remote calls shutdown(SHUT_WR) after it's done sending data but continues to recv(), then local is expected to read out the data, and then confirm reception and issue it's own shutdown(SHUT_WR) so that remote gets the acknowledgement), then there would be no question.
