[QGIS-Developer] External python package dependency in plugins

[matteo]

Hi,

thanks for raining this issue and to provide this beautiful solution.

Actually having plugin with external python lib dependencies was/is
tricky especially for windows system (in my experience)

that's also a good idea!

Cheers

Matteo
