Why even follow the python packaging format if everything needs to be in artifactory anyway? #313

What I don't understand about this plugin, is why it uses setup tools at all?

In the end everything needs to be in artifactory, so why not just store the packages in a custom format, then extract them locally when installing the build, create a virtual environment that loads this, etc.
