The only one thing I have to say about that is that it makes
embedding of .py files recursive.

So, it begs the question "How many times can you embed a .py
within a .py?"

And then; "How do you check if a .py is a .py?"

Whereas, if you just associate to a .egg or a .eag or some
other extension suffix, it just keeps things very orthodox
and you can have a visual queue (for users with gui-
interfaces).

It also makes distribution on pypi and the like much more
straightforward.
