I've looked into that before - unfortunately with virtualenvs, the standard
library gets split over different locations, and I couldn't see a good way
of working out which directories the stdlib is in. There might also be some
scenarios where separately installed modules are in the same directory as
the stdlib, although I don't know of any off the top of my head.
