I'm note sure if he meant "never use paster serve" or "just don't use
it for App Engine apps".

It's mainly used for installing packages. You may realize later you
need a different package, or want to upgrade the ones you have.
Without virtualenv, you'll have to have a global copy of Setuptools
installed, and will have to specify the destination path every time
you install something (because you're not installing into the default
site-packages any more).  Or create a distutils.cfg specifiying the
install location.
