I think that'd be reasonable.

Another alternative would be to have a 'plpython' extension that depends
on plpython2. That'd require users to specify CASCADE when creating it,
but that actually seems like it could be a useful hint...  I think it's
probably not worth going that route though, because reassigning objects
from one extension to another is more work than reasonable...
