I see a few options: 1. Abandon the "python" name for the 3.x series and commit to calling it "python3" now and forever (i.e. actually make the decision that Mitchell refers to).
I believe this was decided on sometime (the sprints?). That's an unfortunate decision. When the 2.X line stops being maintained (after 2.7 maybe?) we're going to be stuck with the "3" suffix forever for the "real" Python. Why doesn't it make more sense to just use "python3" only for "altinstall" and "python" for "fullinstall"?
Just use python3 in the shebang lines all the time (where applicable ;), as it is made by both altinstall and fullinstall. fullinstall also make plain "python", but that is not important.
