It should probably be noted that the "activate_this" script (and indeed,
all of the activation scripts, etc) are not anything special. Users can
relatively easily write their own, or a customised version. Sure, providing
the scripts is a convenience, and they are somewhat tricky to get right,
but the fact that venv doesn't provide activate_this isn't a showstopper.
