mimms @3.2.1 depends on python26; should be able to depend on python2[5-7] as alternatives?

Description

According to its ​web page, mimms should be able to use Python >= 2.5. Is there any reason why the port depends solely on python26? Can it depend in the alternative on python25 or python27 or both? My apologies if this is a stupid question....

The proper way to handle this is to have pythonXY variants. Currently the port is using the obsolete python26 portgroup and needs to at least switch to using the unified python 1.0 portgroup.

The port was switch the unified python portgroup sometime in the past. I changed it to use python 2.7 in r119829.
