Playing with the popcon website [1] I can't see a clear correlation between 
ipython and python-argparse installations, so modifying Python's package to 
solve this (by providing python-argparse) might be a little overkill.

Until the python2.6 userbase drops [2] why don't you just lower python-argparse 
to a Recommendation instead of a Dependendency? This would still pull python2.6 
by default but it would allow removal or no installation (using apt-get 
--no-install-recommends) for those who want to keep only python2.7 (myself 
included ;-)
