You have the burden of proof backwards there. You're the one asking me to break backwards compatibility, and to let people continue to believe wheels are only a partial replacement for eggs - it's up to you to make the case that waiting until wheel 1.1 (which, again, has nobody committed to writing it and a completely unspecified timeline) is a superior approach to clarifying something I thought was already documented when I accepted the PEP (and is certainly inherent in the design of the format). The zipimport compatibility didn't need to be discussed much because it was there in Daniel's original wheel design - there was never any proposal to use a zipimport *incompatible* approach, so nobody had to campaign in favour of zipimport compatibility.
