Don't bother with IDLE. I haven't tried the Eclipse plug-in or Komodo, but the IDE I use (apart from Textpad or Vim) is SPE - http://pythonide.blogspot.com/ To write bindings for Python, have you tried looking at SWIG yet? I tried writing Python bindings for a library by hand once. These days I'd either use SWIG or just use ctypes.
After showing the Creating World screen for a while, I got a BSoD, probably related to the Nvidia driver. I'd managed to start games two times earlier in the evening successfully, but the first one died from a BSOD after odd graphical artifacts appeared. I didn't save the error dump from it, though.

Can I add another request to reconsider bots? Even if not in version 1.0, it would be nice if you exposed hooks so that modders could create their own bots to play against other people, even if you never write any of your own beyond trivial ones that demonstrate the AI API. This would probably require the creation of special bot accounts, so that people know what they're going up against, and weak players can't just boost their online ratings by having a bot play for them for a while.
@Theyus: I was having the same problem after I updated via SDC, and was also seeing old market prices, but after I reupdated via the download link on the Sins website, it fixed both problems. I'm using a GeForce 8600 GTS, so your millage may vary.
