Also, with this approach, it may be possible to do global dist caching which can be updated as things are changed by hooking into zc.buildout.easy_install's develop(), install(), and build(). Thoughts?
Would any work you do in this area make it easier to handle selected global packages? The hard point there seems to me to keep track of what is coming from where. When buildout has a firmer grip itself on where what dist is, doing advanced tricks with them might be easier.
Unrelated to your work as such, but as long as you're thinking about a global dist cache, throwing an extra possible usecase at you might help you design it ;-)
