EasyInstall can now download bare ``.py`` files and wrap them in an egg,

as long as you include an ``#egg=name-version`` suffix on the URL, or if
the ``.py`` file is listed as the "Download URL" on the project's PyPI
page.  This allows third parties to "package" trivial Python modules
just by linking to them (e.g. from within their own PyPI page or
download links page).
