TBH, PEP 503 normalization really only means the name gets lowercased, since PEP 427 implements the exact same (effectively anyways) normalization as PEP 503 does, just uses ``_`` instead of...

I would have to think about it some, but there's a high chance that we could just force normalize sdist names on upload in Warehouse. There's a lower chance, but...

Yea, it happens. packaging is full of them :P (though increasingly less of them!) I think documenting that it implements PEP 625, possibly with warning that PEP 625 isn't accepted...

Oh, I guess to technically support PEP 625, it should be implemented to also support the ``.sdist`` extension that PEP 625 implements, which is probably fine?

Or maybe just document it requires the naming rules from PEP 625, but not the extension.

I would just add it as a dependency. I don't think we need to worry about a conditional dependency and I certainly don't think that we should reinvent the wheel....

Ah sorry, I thought you were working on a smaller scoped API than that. That's actually a good idea, and something I started working on some proof of concepts back...

An interface to control tags like that, whether it's some kind of text file or a python API should be a PEP so we don't privilege this particular implementation of...
