Are there any instructions anywhere on how to remove Apple's version, and put on an official Python.org blessed version and ensure the latter resides somewhere on my path?
If you don't see any benefit in a Framework installation of Python, then there probably aren't any for you... =)
You could then install python from DarwinPorts [1] or fink [2] and they will happily live beside Apple's version - just let the newly installed python precede Apple's python in your $PATH and you'll be done.
Non-framework builds of Python don't ship with a Python interpreter in an application bundle, so there is no 'pythonw' script. That makes it impossible to run a Carbon or Cocoa based GUI app before going through py2app or bundlebuilder (you should do that anyway, but...).
His problem with Apple's Python has nothing to do with the fact that it's a framework build, anyway.
