You personally wouldn't.  If users of Python-mode asked for it, you
would pass on the requests, though, I suppose.  And they will if those
extensions get registered in Windows as executable.

I've long thought what the Emacsen should do is learn to recognize
shebangs and other content-based file magic.  XEmacs *can*, I think
GNU can too, but we haven't worked out how to do it in a way that
interacts well with the extension recognition feature (which is what
Ye Olde Guard favors).
