Ok.
Environment markers
..
Here are some example of fields using such markers:
Requires-Dist: pywin32 (>1.0); sys.platform == 'win32'
Requires-Dist: [Windows] pywin32 1.0+
That's simpler, shorter, and less ambiguous. Easier to
parse for package managers.
'win32' is more specific than 'Windows' and, to me, '1.0+' means
'>=1.0', not '>1.0'.
