I am a fan of Eclipse and PyDev and would think such a mechanism could be
added to Py .... including online plugin updates
I think this is a very cool idea -- I"d love to have something like Eclipse that I could hack on without having to deal with JAVA.
Be sure to talk to Stani (of SPE fame), and the group he put together of folks collaborating on a merged Python IDE. I don't know if that project is going anywhere, but if it is, it would be nice to join forces.
Stani's web site seems to be down at the moment.
