Final point I want to reiterate - Python itself is essentially registry free already in that it does not need registry settings to function.

That's something we should probably publicise better. People seem unaware of it (in much the same way that they never really noticed zip application support). Maybe we could include a section in the Python 3.6 "What's new" (even though it's not technically new - but I did a quick check of What's New back to 3.2 and couldn't see any mention)?
