Please see the large number of Zope and PEAK distributions on PyPI as minimal examples that disprove this being the common use case. I expect you will find a fair number of others, as well. ... In other words, the "base package" scenario is the exception these days, not the rule. I actually know specifically of only one other such package besides your mx.* case, the logilab ll.* package.
Isn't that pretty even, then? zope.* and PEAK are two examples of one approach; and mx.* and ll.* are two examples that use the base package approach. Neither approach seems to be the more common one, and both are pretty rare. --amk
