Okay, so after today's discussions I'm still not really clear on how path freezing (baking, whatever) should work for standalone setuptools. Would it solve the problem for your use cases if I provided an option like "--script-wrappers=plugin1,plugin2,...", where the plugin names are entry points that would get a chance to modify the contents of generated scripts? That way, you guys could experiment freely with your script-wrapping strategies without having to monkeypatch. And any tools that you build which wrap easy_install can simply add the necessary setting(s) to an appropriate .cfg file.
