   Hi, could provide more context to the issue? Why do you want this feature? Is the current virtualenv approach not working? Are there technical advantages to the built-in `venv` over `virtualenv`?
   
   From my understanding, virtual environments created by `virtualenv` should be technically identical to those created by `venv`, but `virtualenv` provides much better configurability and performance characteristics in the implementation. The only real advantage to `venv` is it does not require installing a third-party dependency, but that is a non-issue for Airflow, which has a ton of them anyway.
