Hello,

I'd like to run different external programs during the install command which are provided by (potentially) installed extras, but I cannot find where the currently selected extras are stored.

The only thing I quickly found by going through the distutils and setuptools codebases is an old TODO from easy_install indicating it might not have been implemented yet:

https://github.com/pypa/setuptools/blob/afba2d89c4436451ad4d7e19228584246a9aaadc/setuptools/command/easy_install.py#L1106

I can hack this by try excepting on ImportError, but is there a more elegant (and intended) way?
