I've been a somewhat confused bystander in this thread for a
while, and for what it's worth, I think Nathaniel is exactly
right on these points:

1. In-place vs. out-of place and sdist/wheel consistency are
orthogonal issues.

2. Sdist/wheel consistency should be an implied goal that
goes without saying in all cases. Even if a backend can't
always guarantee it, it should make a best effort.
