Hi Edoardo, thanks for the patch.
I'm not 100% sure I fully understood this patch in practice. In the pull request you cite a `setup.py` example, but I don't understand if that would be the `setup.py` of a python module using netjsonconfig or that should be the setup.py of netjsonconfig itself. Could you give a full example? If it's what I think it is, it will most likely need a bit of documentation to help users understand how this feature works and how it can be used.
