1. You can't conveniently install eggs into a non-system directory, such as ~/my-python-stuff.
2. If you allow even a single egg to be installed into your PYTHONPATH, it will change the semantics of your PYTHONPATH.
I discovered another annoyance with eggs the other day -- it seems that tracebacks referring to egg-resident files contain the pathname of some temporary directory that existed when the egg was being packaged, rather than the one it actually exists in at run time.
