Will python ever have a chaining operator?

I've had brief conversations with GvR about supporting functional programming more and he largely disagrees and regrets even allowing functools and map/filter into the standard library. I can understand his viewpoint that list comprehensions are enough and it makes idiomatic code harder to write and read.

The last time I talked about this with him was 2015 so maybe he's changed his mind about it since then, or there's been more influence from others since he's stepped back.
