X3D-Edit uses Netbeans and runs either as a plugin or a standalone 
application.  Netbeans appears to have good Python support (possibly 
dated, not sure).  So it would be possible to use both together.

If someone is interested in defining an SAI binding for Python, that 
would be great.  Would be happy to set us a special teleconference 
meeting of X3D Working Group to discuss what is involved.

Jython is a java implementation of Python.  So conceivably someone could 
write X3D Script node binding for Python as part of Xj3D.

all the best, Don
