It's supposed to, but updating the relevant section of the PEP has been lingering on my todo list for a while now. Short version is that you'll be able to do "pip install package[-:self:]" in order to get all the build, dev and runtime dependencies without installing the package itself. It hasn't been a priority since PEP 440 was the focus of the last pip/setuptools release, and Warehouse & TUF have been higher priority since then. So I agree it would be worthwhile to figure out an interim improvement, but don't have a strong opinion on what that should look like.
