This has also been possible for years already using either PBR or distutils2. For example, hundreds of Python packages produced by the OpenStack community use a branchless boilerplate setup.py which declares a setup_requires on the pbr package, and then everything else goes into an INI-formatted setup.cfg file (except for install_requires which are drawn from requirements.txt instead). -- Jeremy Stanley
