How complicated would it be to have pip installation as an optional functionality in the installer? That's, AFAIK, how CPython installers on Windows handle pip nowadays. > Try the built-in tab complete too.

The only problem I noticed with Jython console on a quick test on Windows was that exiting it requires Ctrl-D and not Ctrl-Z as with CPython. Anyway, Jython 2.7 beta 4 seems to be a great release. Based on my testing on Linux and Windows it is so solid that we can finally drop Jython 2.5 support with Robot Framework. Already looking forward for rc1!
