I LOVE this idea. Do any mainstream distros do this now?

  Not that I'm aware of. In practice we leave /usr/bin/python untouched (on 2.4) and install ActivePython in /opt. That makes the estate slightly less manageable because now Red Hat isn't doing all the integration and maintenance for us (and RH costs a fortune, as in more than Windows) but what can you do? People want to use 2.6 features at the very minimum.
