Because Cython is not yet shipped be all the major distros (including not
Enthought's EPD current Beta, AFAIK), so it rules out a fair amount of
people who cannot/do not want to install something not shipped.

Note that I don't care that much amount this issue. I am just explaining
why I think it should be after 1.0.5 ships.
