I'm not an IDE person either, but some people prefer having lots of
programming aids like prompts for methods, members etc. Maybe the OP is
looking for something like that?

Now about the OP's question, if you are an emacs user you can checkout
CEDET[1] however I am not too sure how complete the support is for python.



I  use wingware's python wing IDE for any sizable project [more than a few files, work on it for more than a few days]. It is a python specific IDE.

http://www.wingware.com/wingide-personal/index

It is commercial, but they have a starter version which albeit has a lot of features switched off but should have all the necessary requirements for python and is more python specific than other alternatives. At the risk of sounding like a commercial, I will say that I was very happy with it and bought a few  personal licenses to support their great work. 

Having said that,  most of the time I just stick with vim  for those one time script edits or work on  servers.
