Yes! We've been working on this for quite some time as it's one of the worst experiences in Python packaging today.

There are two PEPs that we're involved with that will provide the components for the ecosystem to properly declare metadata in this domain [1] [2].

We're also working on some features in uv, such as the torch backend option [3], to improve the situation in the interim.

We'll be announcing more in this area in the near future!
