lxml supports both Python 2 and Python 3 but the current python-lxml package (2.3.3-1) only supports Python 2:
http://www.archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/python-lxml/

The AUR has a python3-lxml package (explicitly numbered 3):
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=32581

Since python-lxml is already included in the non-AUR repositories, should python3-lxml be included too?
The convention for other packages seems to be that python-something is for Python 3, while python2-something is for Python 2. What should be done for lxml?
This task depends upon
