I'm not so sure about that. The IC module, for instance, plugs into the Internet Config on the Mac, so you can read things like proxy settings when making an HTTP or FTP connection. To make Python as useful on the Mac as it currently is, you'd have to refit a lot of that in PyObjC, and bundle PyObjC into Python, wouldn't you? And I haven't seen a lot of volunteers on the MacPython mailing list raring to contribute to this.
