Turns out the __init__.py file is needed when trying to use uninstalled
zope packages, or virtualenv without --no-site-packages option.
setuptools.find_packages does not recurse into packages that do not have
an __init__.py file, so they are not included in results, and that may
cause problems, but I do not have a test case to demonstrate that. One
problem is that z3c.autoinclude does not find the target package.
schooltool uses it to automatically include plugins, but I get a
KeyError: 'schooltool' if schooltool/__init__.py is not installed.
A dependency on the namespace package may force the packager to create
one.
