And really, this isn't that unreasonable.  Not only does this make
users more aware of their environment (ie, the distinction between
your package and the major numerical package in Python), but its so
much cleaner.  With the combined approach, any NumPy installation
problems would be (frequently) associated with your package.  On the
other hand, if there are any NumPy installation problems in the
separated approach, at least your package is blameless.
