I would think the easiest approach is to have a 2.7.2 releasing branch 
where changes for 2.7.2 are applied and immediately merged into the main 
2.7 branch.  It's trivial to create such a branch off of the 2.7.2rc1 
tag but (I think) you wouldn't be able to push the resulting repo into 
the main repo because it creates a new head. and there's a hook to 
prevent that.  Someone would have to create it specially.

Really??? I have some changes that I need to commit to 2.7 that do need
to go into 2.7.2. So how are you going to manage these?

I rather recommend that the 2.7 branch is frozen until the final
release, and any changes are only merged afterwards.

This is a mess.

I would like to commit something into the 2.7 branch. The NEWS file starts 
with:

What's New in Python 2.7.2?
===

*Release date: 2011-05-29*

Python 2.7.2 was released yesterday, or was it the RC1?

I don't care if my commit (better fix for #1195) doesn't go into Python 2.7.2, 
so should I start an empty "Python 2.7.3" section?
