Some of the repos are already used productively, such as distutils2 and
the benchmarks repo, some are used by those helping with the migration,
such as hooks and pymigr.  The cpython one will become the test repo
once Dirkjan is done with his schedule.

No; that would be just another infrastructure for us to handle, plus
we would need to maintain passwords for every user.  Since the current
SVN also only allows commit via ssh/public-key, I don't see a problem
doing the same for hg.
