Actually yes, we generally tend to avoid using the `requests` module as it was 
only added recently in Debian (stable), and we never need anything that the 
standard urllib/urllib2 cannot do.

So we've dropped that `requests` use in trunk rather than adding it to 
setup.py: addons rev.8842 rev-id: dle@xxxxxxxxxxx-20130802130349-206ms4c5s5dnzbti

Thanks for the heads up!
