Wrt. invoking it from distutils: Why not?

Wrt. this covering all uses: Surely the ones that people
would use the library for, no?

Ok, I'll do that.

We should decide which of the copies remains the master, and
which copies use merge-tracking. I would propose the sandbox
copy remains the one where we check in stuff, so that 2to3
can still get distributed as a stand-alone application.

Ok, I'll move it into lib2to3 then also.
