Sure, this is a good idea. Technically speaking, this is extremely easy. Somebody needs to "/msg chanserv register #python3" and that's about it. (In this case, that "someone" may need to be Brett Cannon, since he is the official group contact for Freenode regarding Python-related channels.) Practically speaking, you will need a group of at least a dozen contributors, each in a different timezone, who sit there all day answering questions :). Otherwise the ownership of the channel is just a signpost pointing at an empty room.
