where type of problem == sandboxed environment, sure. How do you solve the
problem for system packagers?
What's to stop a system packager either just running the buildout on
install, or running the buildout at package build time and then just
dropping the resulting environment wherever they want to install
applications? Such a package would only be dependent on the right python
version at runtime...
