Not clear what you are really asking for, but maybe this will help. I have a application that is 95% normal code, packaged up via py2exe. Other 5% is a few .py files in a separate directory, modified regularly by the users (report specifications in some lists/dicts). These files are *excluded* from the py2exe build, and I manually add this directory to sys.path during the application startup. A change to one of the spec files is picked up like any normal python session, and I don't need to rebuild the entire app. Could you do the same type of thing?
