Is there a way to force packages to be installed multiversion (from the 
package metadata itself)?  I'm fine putting it in a seperate package, 
but I don't want to require people to install that package in a special 
way -- especially since it's kind of hard to do with easy_install 
anyway, when a requirement is installed implicitly.  Maybe something in 
setup.cfg will do it?
