Actually, it's 100% orthogonal, if done correctly.  If anything, this 
slightly reduces the need for per-user site-packages, since in the 
new world, .pth files would generally only be needed for "develop" 
installs.  (Assuming we find a way to support namespace packages 
without using .pth files, that is.)
