I believe that's what Robert Collins pip PR is aimed at providing. It's
still quite limited, as the vast majority of projects aren't going to
switch to a declarative devdir, hence PEP 426's dependence on generated
declarative metadata in the sdist (that way most folks will just be
upgrading to a newer setuptools rather than having to switch to a new build
toolchain and change their own development practices)

Cheers,
Nick.
