Hi! emacs-for-python is mostly a big bundle that configures various existent python packages, the problem it is trying to solve is to pack all the features (syntax check, autocompletion, snippets etc.) in a single place (it's very symilar to emacs-starter-kit in this respect). The default python-mode I use is fgallina's python.el because I heard that it's the candidate python mode in emacs24 and it plays nice with the other packages. Asking him (fgallina) would be a really good move imho.
There are original features as well, for example the virtualenv extension that integrates well with virtualenvwrapper and modifies directly the emacs environmental variables instead of just modifying the python shell. There is also a nice helper to configure flymake (on-the-fly syntax checking) but not much more than that. I wanted to work also on other stuff, especially some testing-helper extension. That said I would be very happy to help you but do you have a specific feature in mind that you want to see? I'm not sure how can I help, mostly because the "favourite features" of emacs for python are completion and ropemacs (that don't fit in a python-mode.el I guess).
