As an user, I want to use "sudo pip install" because packages
installed in /usr (or /usr/local) are accessible without having to
touch PYTHONPATH: the install directory is part of the default
sys.path.
Steve Dower also proposed the idea of a "default virtual environment"
somewhere in the $HOME directory which would be in the default
sys.path.
For anyone who wants to follow along with this proposal (which barely
resembles the brief description here :) ), we've been working on it on
Kushal's github repo: https://github.com/kushaldas/peps/pull/1/files
Clarifying comments/questions are welcomed. (Apologies to anyone who
doesn't have a github account yet, but it seems like it will be getting
increasingly harder to contribute to Python in any way without one, so
you may not have much choice...)
Cheers,
Steve
