That sounds OK to me. I think the only remaining point of contention is
whether the build_sdist hook should make an archive or an unpacked
directory. I'm not entirely sold, but Nick's point about not having to
specify the archive format is enough that I've changed my PR to specify
an unpacked sdist.
