My current understanding is that that Python land kinda wants everybody to use pip to install anything written in Python (except the science people, who gravitate more towards conda, though it can wrap pip for software not packaged natively). So yeah, it's perfectly natural to install scripts with pip, though I forgot where exactly in setup.py you have to specify them. Examples include SCons (which is also distributed via pip), various linters such as flake8, and test frameworks such as nose which also come with scripts needed to drive them. (Also, I seem to remember that there are provisions for specifying examples separately from regular scripts, but I forgot the specifics.)
