That's actually a very good point - the wheel project has its own
"install a wheel" API, not just the command line tool. If that's all
buildout needs, it may be a simple way of adding wheel support. If
buildout needs "the other stuff" that pip/setuptools provides, around
discovery and downloading from PyPI, version/requirements checking,
script wrappers, etc, then that's a bigger issue of course.
