Now that we can break compat in distutils2/packaging, we can change the default install dir to use PEP 370 user site-packages. For users without root, copy-pasting "pysetup run install_dist" from the docs would Just WorkTM. This would also avoid the dreadful advice to use sudo on OSes that have their own package manager and don’t want users to muck up with /usr.
See also #10745.

In my Winxp machine, I can add and delete directories in python32/Lib/site-packages (all-users installation) from my user account. That is what I expect and want the default to be, not the Terry/whatever that I have never used (or the admin/whatever if I happen to install as admin.)

With the raise of virtualenv and its inclusion in CPython for 3.3, this is even less a concern, even for UNIX. I’m withdrawing the idea and will continue to advertise --user and warn against sudo in documentation and other venues.
