I can go with that, but…

Even though virtualenv and pip come as standard with Python 3.4+, there
is a lot of Python 2.7 out there (sadly). Especially on Windows in
Python 2 land, virtualenv and pip is a real pain.

I think we will have to think in terms of some form of self-contained
distribution to avoid getting hassles from Windows/Python 2.7 based
folk.
