New submission from Thomas Güttler:

I am missing a policy how sys.path should be altered.

We run a custom sub class of list in sys.path. We set it in sitecustomize.py

This instance get replace by a common list in lines like this:

sys.path = glob.glob(os.path.join(WHEEL_DIR, "*.whl")) + sys.path

The above line is from pip, it similar things happen in a lot of packages.

Before trying to solve this with code, I think the python community should 
agree an a policy for altering sys.path.

What can I do to this done?

We use Python 2.7.
