Thanks! That's a lot of help. Are there any public examples, or is
your format only used internally?

Would you expect to use any of the new pkgutil APIs - for example, to
check if a distribution is installed, and/or the installed version? Or
to check you're not overwriting a file owned by another distribution?
Or would you get any value from storing your own format-specific
metadata files in the egg-info directory?

If all you care about is that setup.py install continues to work, my
suspicion is that PEP 376 won't have much to offer you, whatever
happens.

Paul.
