Replaces PR #731
Fixes#727

After a discussion on #731, we decided to heed the advice of @pganssle and allow for setup.py install calls. Thanks again for chiming in 👍
For now we will not check for additional specific conditions which may cause problems. We'll first see what problems users run into (if any).

I decided to open a new PR since changes from the old PR would be undone/unused.

As far as I can tell, the python setup.py install is not anymore in our documentation. However, a page with this advice is still very much live here. @mfeurer is this a known issue? I thought doc rebuilds were automatically triggered?
edit: doh, looks like it is because it refers to master branch docs instead of develop. Still even the master docs should (have) indicate(d) to use pip instead.

Yes, the docs were never really updated. It's time for a new release once all tests are continuously green again.
