Note that such an approach would then require an altaltinstall command in order to be able to install a specific version of python 3.x without changing the python3 alias (e.g. installing 3.2 without overriding 3.1).

Seems like what we need is something in between altinstall and fullinstall that aliases 'python3' but not 'python', and make that the default. Maybe call it 'install3'.
