and why we cannot find a middle ground here? Did I say something bad
about Donald? Quite the contrary, I think he's the best guy to talk to
regarding pip/setuptools/distutils.

no, it's: "I already use too many hacks, but I will add another one if
you bribe me" ;P

There's nothing "broken" on our side, so I don't have to fix anything
(other than educating our users to not shoot themselves in the foot)

I want to help Daniel (I will even send a pull request if he wants),
all I need is something for me in return (and I'm also OK with adding
"Q: why don't you allow me to touch system files? A: because evil Piotr
made me" to pip's FAQ)

it's my time and I will do in my time whatever I want. If I want to add
a hack to pybuild in my free time, I will do it when I want, you will not
bully me into doing something you think is right!
