Nice, but why not a cookiecutter template?https://github.com/audreyr/cookiecutter

It looks tedious to clone some other project and manually replace strings.

This is indeed a better approach. The project template shown above would require editing of pretty much every file to get going, so there's not much of a benefit (other than highlighting what's possible).

Have you considered using PyScaffold http://pyscaffold.readthedocs.org/ ? It is tuned for ease of use and comes with a lot of features.
