In other words it's got "bin", "lib", "share", "etc", etc..  ~/.local/jython/lib suggests that the parallel scripts directory would be ~/.local/jython/bin, which means I need 2 entries on my $PATH instead of one, which means yet more setup for people who use both Python and Jython per-user installation.

Right, good idea
