It is actually very useful: the environment.plist is for the OS  
adequate to the .profile for your terminal. All programs trying to  
open a shell (to execute commandos) will use settings in that file as  
environment.
Since I use python scripts in more apps than Terminal and TextMate I  
chose that way to have my PATH (and LC_TYPE for that) propagated.

Well if this is working for you - so be it. There is no right or  
wrong, it just might happen that you have to modify some more pointer  
once you installed more external software.
The normal UNIX schema would be to put generic programs into /usr/bin  
and (machine) specific programs into /usr/local/bin - so the later  
path would normally be loaded before the former. Most of the install  
packages honor these schematics and put stuff into /usr/local/...

However the final step is a matter of preference. If what you did is  
working for you, it's fine.
Just keep in mind that there are actually different possible  
solutions when you have access to a different machine (or have to  
deploy you work).
