It is needed for the "latest-versions" script as this parses XML. I consider lxml pretty much the standard tool to do XML in Python these days. Who is not using lxml?
I suspect the majority of people who use OSX as their main platform try to stay as far away from lxml as possible. Not because lxml is bad, but because unless you use special magic it will make your python randomly segfault. This is very sad, and it is not lxml's fault but I see no good solution at this moment. Using z3c.recipe.staticlxml recipe helps a bit for people using buildout, but that is not everyone and even then I have seen random segfaults. Wichert.
