Right. I guess in our case the package-includes isn't needed. But if we
do support it, it should be supported well.

I'm very happy with zc.buildout in general and look forward to start
using it much more, but the recipes need some polish and some of the
integration issues just start coming up while we're using it and make me
a bit nervous about using it full-scale.

We'd love to contribute, so having some guidance on the ideas would be
very appreciated.

Christian
