Mark Hammond <mhammond at users.sourceforge.net> added the comment:

Thinking more about data_files, I'd agree that blindly converting all
.py files and nothing more isn't as useful for install_data as the other
commands.  It might make more sense to allow data_files to specify a
list of patterns that will be matched to perform the conversion, with
the default being all .py files.
