I've got no problem with changing the script to 'install' by default, so 
long as it kept all the other existing behaviour and options, 
particularly printing usage if an 'unknown' option, like --help, is 
used.  '-install' should still be supported even if pywin32's setup.py 
no longer provides it.  That would make for a much cleaner change IMO.

If you can knock up a patch like that which works for you, please send 
it my way....
