No way to install pip for Python 3.4 in 15.10 Wily

It looks like 15.10 uses a mixture of Python 3.4 and 3.5 (hopefully
that's temporary?). Pip, the python package manager, is available
from "python-pip" for Python 2.7, and "python3-pip" for Python 3.5,
however, there is no python3.4-pip, and because of the weird state of
Python in debian/ubuntu, there's no way to use "ensurepip" to get it
either.
One fix would be to just ship a complete version of
python/python3.4/python3.5, including pip, as part of the base
package, if there's any appetite for revisiting the historical
decision to unbundle python...
