Personally, I'm against the idea on principle, because the bin/sbin
distinction is not a cross-platform concept (Windows does not have
it). For the core tools, I'd prefer *not* to include tools that
encourage platform-specific behaviour (I've seen too many projects in
the past which would work perfectly on Windows except for something
like this).

As a 3rd-party setuptools extension providing utilities that make
writing POSIX-specific packages easier, I see no problem with it,
though.
