That won't fly.
A significant number of people will be installing in situations where
setup.py will have no access to the internet.
Why is it that you basically want to put an entire module's worth of
code inside every single package's setup.py?
Take something like errorhandler:
http://pypi.python.org/pypi/errorhandler
The actual code of the package is only about 30 lines long.
Having to include a 500 line setup.py just so I can include metadata in
the packages seem pretty insane ;-)
