The "src" convention is actually terrible when working with Python code, since suddenly you can't experiment easily on a VCS checkout, you have to do extra steps and/or write helper scripts for it. The fact that few Python projects, including amongst the most popular projects, use that convention mean it's really not considered a good practice, nor convenient.
