I also want to mention that pyx and nzmath are both are pip installable 
(see 
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!searchin/sage-devel/install$20pip/sage-devel/c9joE12sqDg/JJzhG7h4ZNQJ).
 
So could we modify http://trac.sagemath.org/ticket/19187 to handle those as 
well?

In regards to the remaining unclassified optional spkgs:

extra_docs is exactly that, it is extra documentation for the following (* 
marks outdated):

- gap*
- gmp (I think *)
- gnuplot
- ipython*
- kash (do we still even distribute this?)
- linbox*
- macaulay2 (likely *)
- matplotlib*
- maxima*
- mpfr*
- mwrank
- ntl*
- numeric (?)
- numpy*
- octave (I suspect *)
- pari*
- python*
- readline*
- singular*
- zodb

So I think that is pretty much not worth it. (I think we have options that 
we can pass to build these docs too; if not, we should and have each spkg 
carry its own (extra) documentation.)

java3d is a non-mathematical package since it just contains the java 3d 
libraries (and something we should probably force a system-wide install if 
you need these libraries).

pycryptoplus is not mentioned on the online optional spkg list 
<http://files.sagemath.org/spkg/optional/>, nor in the list from sage 
-optional.

For the experimental spkgs, we can make those new-style as needed and go 
with option (B) or (D with message). Here I don't think there is as much 
need to make sure they do install.

Best,
Travis
