But you can use a lot of the Zope Toolkit with Zope 2.10, which is an enormous benefit. No, you can't, as far as I can tell. You'd have to remove Zope 3 entirely from Zope 2.10, and Plone relies on Zope 3, so this sounds unfeasible. The burden of evidence is on the people making this claim.
Sorry, but we do this all the time. Thanks to buildout and explicit version pins its a piece of cake to get a zope.i18n 3.6 or whatever version used instead of the zope.i18n shipped inside the Zope2 tarball.
I haven't done a project for more than two years now where I didn't upgrade one of the zope.* packages with some newer version.
Since we moved stuff around a lot, it isn't just a matter of upgrading a few packages here and there. Matters can be quite surprising. See elsewhere in the thread where I describe troublesome scenarios. Perhaps even with these surprises things work well enough for people to have a working Plone install after this is done.
