Isn't this what ensurepip already does???
Sure, it's called ensure *pip* but pip requires setuptools, so you get that out 
of the box.

ok, nice.

I was thinking about a new key-value pair in setup.py or setup.cfg.

ensurepip is a package.

Is there already a way to pull the matching pip or setuptools version via a 
setup.py/setup.cfg?
