I've made PRs against PEP 517 for: Underscore to dash in build-backend: https://github.com/python/peps/pull/139
1a: Add a user parameter to the install_editable hook https://github.com/python/peps/pull/140 OR: 1c: Get rid of the install_editable hook https://github.com/python/peps/pull/141 I'm leaning towards 1c; it can always be standardised in a separate PEP, and an optional hook added back.
