As both a writer and reader, I would like to just add, for instance,

#! python3

(or 3.3 or whatever) and have the launcher do the 'right thing'.
It seems to me that that really should be enough info for *nix,
but given that it is not, a program to add the required extra noise  for 
a particular distribution to the first line of every module in a package 
should not be too difficult.

The above would be easy for anyone to write and understand.
