More often developers may want to assign the contents of README.txt to the `long_description` field. I have seen setup.py's that simply do:

  long_description = open('README.txt').read()

If one is to use setup.cfg, how would this particular case be handled? Override `long_description` in setup.py .. or provide a Config variable ($README)?
