Same.  If all of Sage-the-library's dependencies are provided by the
system (a BIG if) then this is all that's really needed to hack on the
sage Python package in principle.  It would certainly be my preference
but that's just because it's what I'm used to, not out of any value
judgment (though it's also what most Python developers in general are
used to).

+1 though I wouldn't want to step on too many toes either.  I've been
on both sides of that before in other projects so I know how it
goes... :)
