What's the problem this feature will solve?

Pip wrappers (like pipenv) want to be able to measure adoption of their tools.

Describe the solution you'd like

As discussed in #5424:

Alternative Solutions

  • Allow setting arbitrary string in user-agent - could break existing format expected by linehaul
  • Do nothing - not justified based on the presence of a valid use case which doesn't have available workarounds or is able to be handled by external tools
