A user wants to reuse a high-level component (aka package aka "project" in distutils jargon aka "product" in distutils jargon). They want to customize the high-level component without hacking its code.
BTW, we work way to hard to satisfy the second part of this goal. Yeah, somethings do want to be configurable.
