I just tested it on Ubuntu, it worked. My point in the post was more that the embedded Python in Blender isn't really a "binding", it forces you to use Blender's 'internal' Python installation, so you must reinstall all the packages that you need specifically for Blender's Python (I don't know how, but I think there is a way). Also, this makes it impossible to use virtualenv, I guess (not sure). In short, it would be cool if it just "worked from Python".
