Trac ticket 3844 proposes to automatically add the worksheet DATA  
directory to sys.path, so we can easily import python modules - great  
idea!  But, this DATA directory is specific to each worksheet.  If we  
have a common set of python modules that will be used in many  
worksheets, it would be useful to define a location to install those  
modules, and have that location added to sys.path as well.  We would  
also need a mechanism to upload python modules that that notebook wide  
directory, analogous to the worksheet specific Upload function.

I know that if one is administering his own sage notebook server, then  
one can achieve the same end by adding *.pth files to the sage  
python's site-packages directory.  But if one is using someone else's  
sage server, then there seems to be no easy way to do this with the  
current setup.
