Basically I'm trying to figure out what tags pip and various tools should be matching when determining what wheel to download from PyPI (so that diff is what pip matches against now in two scenarios and how I think what is matched against should change). The hope is this can be centralized into a library instead of being internalized in each tool like it is now.
That would be great. I had planned on adding this to pypa/packaging, but never found the time to figure out a good API for it or the exact semantics we want. So Kudos for doing that work. Feel free to make it part of pypa/packaging if you want, or a distinct library is fine too!
