@tiran  I have very vague idea how this is helpful. You have mentioned it during post-devconf "API meeting".  But I no longer remember it and description of this PR is very general.  

In order to move all the pypi patches forward, we need to document(maybe design) the whole pypi workflow.  This is not mentioned in http://www.freeipa.org/page/V4/Build_system_refactoring nor in  http://www.freeipa.org/page/V4/Integration_Improvements  I.e. how FreeIPA project will work/supply packages to PYPI and what are actually the requirements for these packages.  What is expected to work and what not (like everything related to pyhbac).

Right now I have no idea what are the missing blocker parts and what are just nice-to-have things. 

Also I don't really like the part that the patches use custom repo of python-nss. But I'm glad that you are working with @jdennis to improve it. @stlaz, with PR #367 what are the remaining usages of python-nss? Could we actually get rid of python-nss completely?
