shortcut -> shell script -> python script?

For what do you need the shortcut? From following paragraph I understand
you want an autostart rather than a manual start using a shortcut

Why not directly executing the python script but to call it from a
wrapper script?

Running gnome-session-properties you can configure autostart of
applications/scripts in Gnome. Create a script that calls
"gnome-terminal -e" or "gnome-terminal -x" (see gnome-terminal --help)
with your python script, so the terminal will start and output is
printed in it. Let that call in gnome session.
