This is python3 not python-2.x, python3 is only used by a few packages and all the files that could conflict python2 are suffixed with a 
"3", it exists happily with python-2.x.
The only package that could determine it's stability is blender which runs on python3-3.2. As soon as it's in factory I'll start pushing 
the python gang.
