Details

Summary

Windows has some extra constraints that require a multi-file install,
but we expect folks to use an MSI or similar installer there so it's
less of a big deal.

I think this should work.

Before we ship this configuration to end users as part of our official distributions, I think we should figure out a story around enabling users to modify templates. The workflow today is "copy the templates files from your install directory." We need to provide a command for accessing the Python resource data embedded in the binary in the absence of these files.
