For me this isn't too high priority. I typically install Python for all users on Windows anyway, and recommend that also for my clients. I just tested this RC to see how (ensure)pip works in practice, decided to install only for the current user, was very happy to notice that there's an option to set PATH, and then decided to submit an issue when I noticed the system PATH was updated.

Because setting PATH is opt-in, and because 2.7 installer apparently requires admin rights and thus always can updated system PATH, I doubt this problem is going to actually matter to anyone. Great to hear 3.5 will have real "only for me" option.
