Description

I see #40 gave `installJupyterlab` to the Python feature.

Would you accept a PR to more broadly allow dependencies to be installed via pip's [`requirements.txt`](https://pip.pypa.io/en/stable/reference/requirements-file-format/) file?

Either optimistically installing if present (which would be a behavior change)
and/or by adding an e.g. `installRequirements` option to enable / disable this behavior?
