As long as we handle rebuilds after every transition, it already
shouldn't matter (in Python 2 and 3). With dh_python2 we have the same
rebuild requirements, but don't suggest ${python:Provides}, I don't see
any reason to use this for extensions but not dh_python2 public modules.

And then there's PEP-384, which may negate this entirely in Python3 for
some packages...
