​Many thanks for this work.  As you say, it's difficult to know whether
your edits will remove some or all of the objections listed at the top of
the article, but I think they are great improvement.​

​There has been a lot of progress in recent days on the installation
front.  In particular, I am thrilled that "python setup.py install"
works--an ancient bug has been fixed.​

​ As I understand it, pip install leo will "just work" as well.​  So afaik
all the installation problems you mention have been fixed.

​Excellent!  Thanks for doing this.

For me Leo is primarily an alternative to vim, emacs, eclipse, visual
studio, etc. I am happy that it has other uses, but it's really ok if not
everyone uses it ;-)
