Yes, that's exactly what the module I wrote for my company's internal use does.  The 
official version number is hard-coded into setup.py.  My setup.py opens my module's 
__init__.py, and patches the line that starts with "__version__ = ".

I can see that this approach is one of several suggested approaches described in the Python packaging guide. If I'm going to work with a package that eventually ends up on PyPI, I want to make sure that I don't do something unexpected or fragile.

Yah. In my case the VCS tag is the reference from which I make the setup.py and patch the source file.
