Jeremy and I talked about this in [1].

To sum it up: the necessity of neutron for plugins is primarily for testing
and installation to the best of my knowledge. Other coupling tied to bash
scripts that control gate jobs could be easily addressed if it gets in the
way. Therefore, should we move away from tox for release specific tasks,
it's entirely possible to drop the custom project definition.

I hope I represented the conversation correctly!
