That's great and for sure an important topic to work on!

There are some tickets flagged with "python3":
https://trac.osgeo.org/grass/query?status=!closed&keywords=~python3

I suppose that more tickets should carry that keyword but they need to
be identified by scanning those with "python" keyword.

The topic suggestions are posted here (as you know):
https://trac.osgeo.org/grass/wiki/GSoC/2018

but did you already check this page?
