Sorry for the drive-by comment (I don't have time to read the PEP right now) but does this mean that "pip install --upgrade" won't be supported against __pypackages__ directories (it currently doesn't work properly with --target, IIRC - certainly *some* things go weird with --target) or will the PEP include mechanisms to allow pip to work more cleanly with __pypackages__ than it currently does with --target?
