If these Python modules need to be available at runtime they really
should be propagated-inputs.  If they are needed at test time only, they
should be native-inputs.  For Python packages there is rarely a good
reason to use inputs unless they are library bindings.

I think many of our Python packages actually need to declare many more
inputs as propagated inputs.
