I don't see any package that requires this dependency. How are we supposed to test this?

A quick grep of the dev-python category turns up a couple of packages that should utilize it as an optional runtime dependency. Per QA policy, this is expressed in pkg_postinst messages rather than via use flags.

dev-python/django
dev-python/sqlalchemy
