Do you mean those whose .py files directly fit in site-packages itself ?
There are plenty of libraries that are not prefixed with 'python-' and
located in /usr/lib/python{version}/site-packages/package-name.
For instance: HTMLgen, sulfur and many others.

I didn't find any policy about python, except a README.maintainers in
/usr/share/doc/python.
If there is is no such policy, I would a very interested in helping
writing such a document.
