As far as I understand it, an egg file is just a zipimport format zip file with some additional metadata. You can also install the egg files in an unpacked way, if you prefer that. I don't understand the objection here - it's no better or worse than countless packages in site-packages, and if it gives us multiple versions of the same code, all the better.
