Isn't this what ensurepip already does??? Sure, it's called ensure *pip* but pip requires setuptools, so you get that out of the box.
ok, nice. I was thinking about a new key-value pair in setup.py or setup.cfg. ensurepip is a package. Is there already a way to pull the matching pip or setuptools version via a setup.py/setup.cfg?
