[Distutils] plugin mechanism for packaging itself?

[Daniel Holth]

Horribly convenient? Entry points already import every __init__.py at the
root. This would in most cases be looking in a single directory, instead of
iterating over every distribution most of which aren't providing any kind
of plugin at all. Why not, apart from the occasional name clashes and only
supporting one version of each plugin provider?
