I've never seen environment markers being used or supported in the wild.

I'm not against modernizing the format, but given that version 1.2 has been out for around 8 years now, without much following, I think we need to make the implementation bit a requirement before accepting the PEP.

Elephant in the room? Somethin's been around for so long and hasn't got any sort of mainstream support is not a good candidate for a requirement but maybe it's me being naive.
