while restarting to write my blog, i noticed there is no beautiful tooling to setup and use pyhon based dependences for the generators and run them in deveop/publish modes

after pondering some i wondered if tox couldnt be a tool for that
instead of enforcing the sdist/test steps,

i propose adding the ability to completely skip the sdist setup steps, just setting up envs and running commands in them

this use case would aslo make sense for a few other modes of testing
like for example running a robottest testsuite without installing the containing application
