I prefer this approach.
A legacy package which a few people will have installed for a period of transition.
Everyone else uses the latest version of python-base.
If something breaks (like zope) then you reinstall the old package and report a bug.
The zope maintainer can then add a dependancy like requires python <= 1.5
