Another way to reduce the impact of the move is allowing pwb to find &
execute commands located in the pywikibot/ directory.

I know you guys are not keen on adding new configuration options, but
this looks like a prime candidate to me. Allowing the user's own list
of folders would simplify calling some scripts.
Hi Strainu, thanks for the reply.
I agree, and this follows from our last discussion.

That patch only adds 'pywikibot' to the list of directories scanned,
but we could extend that to aid finding scripts in other directories.
e.g. using a env var PYWIKIBOT2_SCRIPT_PATH which could include
multiple directories separated by the OS path separator (: or ;), and
the entries could also be proper python package names for shared
scripts which are packaged and distributed separately from the core
library.
I've added another change to make using scripts in other directories easier.
