We're aware it's a heavy lift, but probably worth it if it opens up a viable, third-party market for python apps.

To open up this market the Python3 implementation must be a complete re-implementation with all bugs fixed and with the additions we have been asking for for so long.

This was also part of the thinking with new Purchases tab as it will provide a structured way to install and protect such apps.

Not really sure how these two would be connected other than using a similar callbackhome mechanism on installation. I can imagine an 'IsThisLegalUse()' Python method, querying some user-specific keys stored in preferences and obtained from Bondware if not found. I do hope these scripts will not be limited to act on stuff in the purchases folder only.
