mxcl/homebrew — Issue #9370: ENH:  python and python3.  make ``--framework`` default?
Author: gregglind

Virtualenvs made from ``brew python`` don't have access to OSX widgets, dialogs etc, which leads to very weird / deep magic errors like: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3692928/why-doesnt-the-save-button-work-on-a-matplotlib-plot

Having it be ``--framework`` by fault makes it easier to fix these.

I am not aware of the drawbacks, if any, but I hope other experts can enumerate them.
