We can try.  See the macro work I've done (though the real work there
was against EPEL5, which is fortunately forgotten now).

I worked up a proposal about this a while ago:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Tibbs/EPELPythonStubPackages

In the end there was basically no good argument for _not_ doing it but
every time I touch something like this someone crawls out of the
woodwork to flame me.  So I end up hesitating instead of doing anything
and then I run out of free time.

Right now I still have too much other Fedora work to do, but maybe I can
find a few minutes to put a couple of these packages in.  I did go ahead
and file four requests for the four packages listed in that proposal
(noting that python2-setuptools does exist on EL7 so only an EL6 branch
for that one).
