I was thinking about this lately. Thanks for taking the initiative to make
this happen. Will the change allow for a more =E2=80=9Cnative=E2=80=9D stat=
e? Meaning, will
it make it easier to use external packages, installed via pip or otherwise?
And being able to use other graphics packages (like tcl, wx, etc.) would be
really nice to do.

Thanks for all you do!

Best,
Abraham
