[Twisted-Python] Doc suggestion for post-installation

I have a modest suggestion for the "Installing Twisted"
document, shamelessly borrowed from ZODB.
Upon installation, suggest that the user try running
the following from the python interpreter:
$ python
>>> import twisted.copyright
>>> print twisted.copyright.version
1.0.0rc3
This would catch an obvious import error of leaving
twisted out of PYTHONPATH, or accidentally using an
older, previously installed version of Twisted.
If the line:
__version__ = "1.0.0rc3"
were placed in the base __init__.py file, the above
python commands could be shortened to:
>>> import twisted
>>> print twisted.__version__
