That's what the mount() actually does - adds the wheel to a registry that an
import hook uses. You also need a place to check that the wheel being mounted
is compatible with the Python doing the mounting - I'm not sure whether what
the import hook should do if e.g. there is a compatibility problem with the
wheel (e.g. is it clear that it should always raise an ImportError? Or ignore
the wheel - seems wrong? Or do something else?)
