Yes and no. Considering the venv issue mentioned by awilfox it might 
cause more issues that it's worth actually. Since Alpine might be 
heavily used in reproducible environments and other testing stuff I'd 
like to keep ensurepip.
However, splitting pip into py3-pip would be nice.


What do you think?
