I disagree that this is the idea. Python in the embedding application should 
work as in the embedding application, not the standalone one. The embedding 
application should be able to easily opt-in to "standalone-like configuration", 
which is also what I said above, but right now that doesn't exist (it's under 
development).

Now, I'd be very much in favour of being able to embed Python without having to 
load any encodings. That ought to get us to the point where you can call 
"site.main()" in your embedding app, which does most of the work of what you 
consider the "default" behavior. But right now you just have to provide enough 
search path to initialize before doing that.
