If you mean "the common use case as opposed to having code in the
__init__.py of the namespace package", I think you'll find that's
because people (especially me!) don't know how to do this, not because
we don't want to!
Chris - who would actually like to know how to do this, with or without
the PEP, and how to indicate interdependencies in situations like this
to setuptools...
