Guido has proposed that all of Python's command line options should be
gettable and settable from Python code. If that became a reality, then
you could merely install a "site.py" that does what you want. Rather
than distributing/installing a whole new interpreter, you would
distribute/install that one file.
Do you want to design the command line option setting/getting API?
