I haven't been paying any attention to this thread, so sorry if this comment is
totally off-point, but it would be possible to use setuptools plugins to allow
third-party modules to appear as if they were in the pyglet.resource module.

This seems like a better solution than putting a module in pyglet/contrib, since
(correct me if I'm wrong) nothing in that directory is actually installed.
