I honestly forgot this slipped into 3.13, but I think it's worth highlighting more, as it is a PEP-sized change that makes the type system significantly more powerful.
@Yhg1s I think it's also worth mentioning in your release announcements.

Make a rough editorial pass over Python 3.13's What's New document. Add the
release highlights, remove or merge some duplicated entries, and reorder
some of the sections (removals should really go before future deprecations).
Callbacks registered in the tkinter module now take arguments as
various Python objects (int, float, bytes, tuple), not just str.
To restore the previous behavior set tkinter module global wantobject to 1
before creating the Tk object or call the wantobject() method of the Tk object
with argument 1.
Calling it with argument 2 restores the current default behavior.
Now, such classes will no longer require changes in Python 3.13 in the normal case.
The test suite for robotframework passes with no DeprecationWarnings under this PR.
I also added a new DeprecationWarning for the case where `_field_types` exists
but is incomplete, since that seems likely to indicate a user mistake.
* Add PhotoImage.read() to read an image from a file.
* Add PhotoImage.data() to get the image data.
* Add background and grayscale parameters to PhotoImage.write().
* Add the PhotoImage method copy_replace() to copy a region
from one image to other image, possibly with pixel zooming and/or
subsampling.
* Add from_coords parameter to PhotoImage methods copy(), zoom() and subsample().
* Add zoom and subsample parameters to PhotoImage method copy().
This is *not* sufficient for the final 3.13 release, but it will do for beta 1:
- What's new entry
- Updated changelog entry (news blurb)
- Mention the proxy for f_globals in the datamodel and Python frame object docs
This doesn't have any C API details (what's new refers to the PEP).
Add "Raw" variant of PyTime functions:
* PyTime_MonotonicRaw()
* PyTime_PerfCounterRaw()
* PyTime_TimeRaw()
Changes:
* Add documentation and tests. Tests release the GIL while calling
raw clock functions.
* py_get_system_clock() and py_get_monotonic_clock() now check that
the GIL is hold by the caller if raise_exc is non-zero.
* Reimplement "Unchecked" functions with raw clock functions.

The code for Tier 2 is now only compiled when configured
with `--enable-experimental-jit[=yes|interpreter]`.
We drop support for `PYTHON_UOPS` and -`Xuops`,
but you can disable the interpreter or JIT
at runtime by setting `PYTHON_JIT=0`.
You can also build it without enabling it by default
using `--enable-experimental-jit=yes-off`;
enable with `PYTHON_JIT=1`.
On Windows, the `build.bat` script supports
`--experimental-jit`, `--experimental-jit-off`,
`--experimental-interpreter`.
In the C code, `_Py_JIT` is defined as before
when the JIT is enabled; the new variable
`_Py_TIER2` is defined when the JIT *or* the
interpreter is enabled. It is actually a bitmask:
1: JIT; 2: default-off; 4: interpreter.
* Add name and mode attributes for compressed and archived file-like objects
in modules bz2, lzma, tarfile and zipfile.
* Change the value of the mode attribute of GzipFile from integer (1 or 2)
to string ('rb' or 'wb').
* Change the value of the mode attribute of ZipExtFile from 'r' to 'rb'.
