The last time this was suggested, David Goodger did not want to do so since 
docutils is public domain whereas roman.py has a copyright and furthermore that 
he did not want to ask the author to release it into the public domain.

See the thread "roman.py in site-packages" in docutils-user on 2008-07-22.
