`pysetup install foo[tests,docs]`? That would be a pretty nice way to
handle docs, tests, and other miscellaneous extra requirements. I
like the idea of using environment markers for that and not having to
add any new metadata fields.
Using an environment marker might also work for some kind of
build-requires, though support for that would still require some
special machinery.
