Main benefit I can think of is that when the plasmoids are scripted and don't 
need to be compiled you can add them straight from the internet using the "Add 
Widgets..." dialog, into your home directory. I don't think that counts as "I 
prefer Python".

Of course this isn't necessary for core plasmoids, since they should be 
available to all users anyway, same with plasmoids that accompany software 
like KGet or KTorrent.
