From a consistency in nomenclature POV, I find 'z' jars a bit with ZConfig, zdaemon, ZEO, zLog, and ZODB, which one might expect to find nested within 'z' (as 'z.Config' for example). This is admittedly only an issue for the newest newbies still trying to guess at where stuff is located.
I don't know what zLog is; presumably you mean zLOG? zLOG is dead in Zope 2.8, and will remain only for API compatibility. I don't think there's any real consistency now for what's in the Zope 2 head, so I don't think that's a big deal.
However, rather than suggest a wholesale moving and renaming of these packages within 'z', I'd like to suggest an alternative short name for the 'zope' package, 'OPE', which avoids this issue:
import OPE.interface from OPE.app import zapi from OPE.app.event import publish from OPE.app.event.objectevent import ObjectModifiedEvent
