Installation as user fails

Another issue: If I want to install burp-ui as a user, I have two possibilities:

pip install --user burp-ui

or using a virtualenv and executing

pip install burp-ui

in the virtualenv.

Both fail because setup.py tries to install some stuff in /usr/local which is hardcoded. It shouldn't do that anyway, because when installing in a virtualenv as root, it will still put stuff into /usr/local which is completely unexpected and IMHO broken.

I don't have a good solution because distutils kind of sucks for installing data files/documentation. For pip install --user I'm also not sure where I would expect the files to go instead of /usr/local/share. In case of a virtualenv, I would expect them to go into the share directory inside the virtualenv.
