Summary: There are two prospective Google Summer of Code (GSOC) students
applying to work on writing a gui interface to the basic pip functions

I commit to mentoring a student (sometime in April), I would like to be
sure, by addressing any objections now, that I will be able to commit
the code when ready (August or before).
Thoughts?
I think it's a great idea, and have no objections. `pip` is now
included by default, yes?
The stdlib includes the ensurepip package. Our Windows and, I believe,
OSX installers run ensurepip.__init__._main.
In those cases where it isn't, IDLE could let
the user know they need to install it.
"Ensure pip / Upgrade pip" is the first feature on Raymond's list.
