FWIW, I don't see "live in Emacs tree" as particularly desirable for
such a user-oriented package.  It's already in NonGNU ELPA, so trivially
installable.

Note: I have not looked at the code of `wgrep.el`, so maybe there are
good reasons to reinvent this wheel, but "live in the Emacs tree" isn't
a good reason.
