So, pip 7.0 depends on the wheel module for its automatic wheel
building, and installing pip from get-pip.py, or the bundled copy in
virtualenvs will automatically install wheel.

But ensurepip doesn't bundle wheel, so we're actually installing a
slightly crippled pip 7.1, which will lead to folk having a poorer
experience.

Is this a simple bug, or do we need to update the PEP?
