Isn't the super secret -U option most of what we need?
./python.exe -U
Python 2.6a1+ (trunk:61276M, Mar 6 2008, 12:06:38)
[GCC 4.0.1 (Apple Inc. build 5465)] on darwin
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> type('foo')
<type 'unicode'>
>>>
A future import would only affect one module though, -U is global.
