You can see the current TODO list at
https://crates.io/crates/python-launcher . Basically I need to implement
"--help" and "--list" to fill in the last two low-hanging fruit features,
but at long as you don't need to customize the search mechanism then it's
already working. And BTW it's already compatible with either 3.10 or 4.0.
