I was also surprised as I was working on the installer, so +1 on changing it.
The installer will also need some changes to add it to PATH, which should be fairly straightforward, but ping me if you need/want pointers. (It's checked in now, so I consider it fair game for anyone who wants to change it.)

That's actually a point I missed making. While I wouldn't class myself as "typical", when I went looking for the user-scripts directory on my machine, I automatically looked in %APPDATA%\PythonXY. I suspect that many people would assume this was how it worked anyway, and be surprised by the current behaviour.
