Now you're trolling us by describing flit.
I'd managed to miss Flit's creation, so I simply wasn't aware of it.
Now that I've had a chance to remedy that oversight, yes, flit sounds exactly like what I meant, so it could be worth recommending it ahead of a full distutils/setuptools based setup.py for simple projects.
IMO, flit should be officially recommended until it at least supports building sdist. Not having this feature is a significant pain point for downstream distributors, David
