Already doable!

I've done the same as a dependency of Sylva (ongoing). You can see how it was implemented here.

I have plans to clean up the imports a bit, so that you can do from sherlock_project ... rather than from sherlock_project.sherlock ..., but that's down the line. Type defs are mostly there if you use static type validation, with #2277 (soon, need to push a change) set to add ~proper~ support for type checks with things like mypy.

Proper documentation for use as a dependency will probably be added at some point.
