In particular, I would then synchronize changes that have proven stable in the standalone release to the Python core sqlite module. I think this is how Barry does it with the email module, too.

I do things a little differently, at least for the maintenance releases. The email packages in the sandbox svn:external the library from the appropriate Python branch. The rest of the sandbox serves as a repository for all the chrome around releases, e.g. generated docs, setup.py, etc.

For email 4.0 I did things a little different, treating it more like a dev branch until it was stable enough to merge back into the trunk (which reminds me, I have to twiddle the sandbox to svn:external it again).

That works well for email, but you may want to do something differently. In general though, I think the sandbox is a great place to develop and release standalone packages that are also integrated with Python. So if you wanted to do something similar for pysqlite I'd be totally fine with that.
