title: easy_install or pip as a limited user?
body: <p>Standard python <a href="http://docs.python.org/2/install/index.html#alternate-installation-the-user-scheme" rel="noreferrer">distutils provides a '--user' option</a> which lets me install a package as a limited user, like this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>python setup.py install --user
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Is there an equivalent for <strong>easy_install</strong> and <strong>pip</strong>?</p>
