Subject: [PATCH] add pyproject.html

I read https://github.com/pypa/setuptools/issues/1698, and a side effect
of source root not being in sys.path is mentioned: probably that is
related to PyInstaller and other things so I left a commented out thing
in setup.py b/c odds seem high that will effect us.
