The MacPython IDE isn't really maintained, so it's unlikely that this 
will happen.

You may want to try using Xcode, it will do syntax highlighting and 
completion of Python code.  It's not the smartest around, but it 
doesn't cost anything (assuming you have a copy of Mac OS X 10.3).

PyOXIDE <http://projects.gandreas.com/pyoxide/download.php> might also 
have code completion, I'm not sure.
