It may also be worth adding support for parsing the files under .egg-info - for instance, those 'extras' in requires.txt. Currently, even pip hardcodes the parsing of requires.txt and I believe there isn't code in setuptools to parse this file (so easy_install uses setup.py' setup() arguments?).
Or even better .. extend PKG-INFO with setuptools' style requires list and entry points.
Please don't suggest to parse setup.py or its output (which is messy with all those warning messages in stdout, for instance).
