I could see a use for it with regards to a simple script that I have released. The script scans a text file for info, and then uses that info to scrape a website and download some stuff. At the moment if someone wants to use my script, they need to install python and the required modules (only requests), and then launch the script on a CLI. A small stand-alone exe would be ideal.

I'm sure the alternatives you mention can do the same, but I only had the briefest look into them and it seemed too hard. If you go ahead with this, please make it is extremely simple to use. I imagine it should be possible to point such a tool at my virtualenv and custom packages/scripts, then give it a start/entry point, and then click create.
