This may be crazy, but just idly wondering: is there an opportunity for the PSF to make things better by throwing some money at it? Packaging appears to be one of those Hard problems, it might be a good investment.

Only if somebody steps forward to take the money - and somebody who can be trusted to achieve something, as well.

The general problem is that issues may only occur when packages actually use the library; so it may even be difficult to fix it in a concerted effort since that fixing may actually spread over several months (or years).

Regards, Martin
