Indeed...  Fortunately for those of us with compilers it works as well.  The 
worst part seems to be widgets -- specially DOMInclude widget -- where some 
of them are unavailable, other publish themselves with one name and are known 
to the system with other (e.g. TurboTinyMCE versus TinyMCE), etc.

Other than that, I had reinstalled my system yesterday and everything worked 
out of the box but DOMInclude (which only has an egg for Python 2.4, without 
any tar.gz / zip as alternative, so setuptools doesn't pick it up -- this was 
reported to the author of the widget a while ago, but....).

On the other hand we can close ourselves to the world, otherwise we'll never 
know about compatibility problems.  I'd suggest change the requirement 
for ">= 1.7.3" for SimpleJSON now, instead of requiring a specific version.  
How many times we had problems because of it?
