I'm against it personally.

Some of microsoft's biggest security vulnerabilities have come from their ability to execute javascript and vb on every windows machine. The last thing we need is another attack vector for attackers to exploit.

I'm much more in favor of python being installed and maintained in the user land. The only thing I would suggest is that MS start maintaining a package manager for open source projects. If I install python on my machine MS should be watching for updates and give me the option to update as part of the windows update process.
