No, and that point will never come, but this is not a problem right now.

Python 3 will be installed slotted, as an extra version, and it will
not disturb the Python 2.x versions or any packages that don't work on
3.x (which are marked as such). I have this working on a bunch of
boxes, and it hasn't caused me any problems so far.

Cheers,
