that's a good idea, i think.  

Actually i'd like to have a (generated or manually written for
now) setup.py that plays along nicely with setuptools.  
Maybe it'S good if it also works without setuptools?

What do you think about starting a branch (based on release/0.9.x)
to get it towards such a state?
