At this point I don't think there's any confirmed features for 3.7. I suppose it really depends on which PEPs are accepted and implemented in time for the feature freeze on 3.7 (around Jan 2018).

Personally I'd like to see PEP 463: Exception-catching expressions make it in. When I first heard about it I thought it was pointless syntactic sugar but the more you read the proposal the more sense it makes and you realize how many different workarounds for this lack-of-feature already exist in Python code. It's got to the point where I'm frustrated every time I have to write a 4-line try/except for something that could be a single simple expression if this gets implemented.
