I can imagine adding a little information, basically a log of when and
why and who installed the package. For instance:
agent: pip 0.5
install-date: 2009-10-08T13:44:00UTC
installed-for-user: False
installed-for-package: OtherPackage==0.3
I think this is a great idea. Recording more information rather than
less and making sure it's kept up to date is a good idea here.
Otherwise, when tools come along later down the line that want to make
use of this information, they'll have to hack something themselves, and
that's what got setuptools into the mess it currently is in the first place!
