Actually, there's a handful of win32 calls that would handle this 
relatively simply; less than a page worth of code (well, until you 
range/error checking and a Python interface).  But since it would require a 
system specific binary, it'd be difficult to distribute.  Perhaps the best 
thing to do would be to talk The Powers That Be into including it in the 
base distribution...
