I disagree with point (3).

I think it would be better to discourage projects from including the output
of cython in their sdists.  They should either have cython as a build-time
requirement or provide built wheels (which are specific a platform and
CPython version).  The middle ground of not expecting the user to have
cython while expecting them to have a working c-complier is a very narrow
case and I think asking those users to install cython is worth the forward
compatibility for Python versions you get by requiring people installing
from source to re-cythonize.
