Whoever thinks it necessary is misguided.  Installing a package doesn't
require munging the registry and none of the popular installation techniques
do.  Installing Python itself does, and some packages have special
requirements (eg, pywin32 registering COM objects), but in general, Python
packages on Windows can ignore the registry.
