I tend to agree. Having that would solve one of the big problems that lead to PEP 394 thinking, that of having to update version numbers in more than one place. ISTM the best place to do it is once in setup.py and let the metadata flow. The only downside is for doing in-tree development without 'installing' the package (e.g. absence of venv, tox, or similar).
