Question: would this make it possible to automatically have certain python packages installed when Sage builds (after building its python of course), perhaps from a list kept in a config file in .sage/ ? I have a list of packages I use a lot (for the lmfdb project), e.g. pymongo, and it is a nuisance to have to re-install them from time to time.
Since we ship and build python anyway, it seems very reasonable to also include this very useful python utility, so +1 from me.
