I always use ptipython (ptpython shell over the ipython console) for my REPLs. The built-in python repl is not /batteries included/ in the sense that it already has what you need to explore the language.

I wonder, what do the python committers think about including a stripped-down version of ipython and ptpython in the built-in python?

I'm opposed to it. I think the current situation is fine, where CPython ships with a basic REPL, and other REPLs exist. I don't want to see any complexity added to CPython. I'm not opposed to hooks to make it easier for third parties to add functionality to the CPython REPL, but I'd have to see how they complicate things before making up my mind.
