Please see the large number of Zope and PEAK distributions on PyPI as
minimal examples that disprove this being the common use case.
If you mean "the common use case as opposed to having code in the
__init__.py of the namespace package", I think you'll find that's
because people (especially me!) don't know how to do this, not because
we don't want to!
Chris - who would actually like to know how to do this, with or without
the PEP, and how to indicate interdependencies in situations like this
to setuptools...
