It won't, but at the moment the reports are likely to be that *pip* is where the error lies. We're saying that such reports will in future be redirected at the project. That is the change. (It may be that it's simply changing "can't fix" to "won't fix" - I don't know how traditionally pip deals with such reports, if indeed it has ever had any). There's no point in worrying though until we have evidence of such a project actually existing. If no-one wants to try to check "likely candidates" in advance, let's just wait for the bug reports if any.
