After this discussion it seemed wiser to submit my proposed 1.2 edits
as Metadata 1.3, adding Provides-Extra, Setup-Requires-Dist, and
Extension (with no defined registration procedure). This version is
sure to be exciting as it also specifies that the values are UTF-8
with tolerant decoding and re-defines environment markers in terms of
the ast module (is there a better way to specify a subset of Python?).
The proposed Metadata 1.3 is at

Thanks,
