Re: [Zope-dev] Question: additional context for IAnnotations adapter?

... I added it while working for ZC two years ago. It was needed to support a use case where the context used for looking up the annotation was not necessarily the current site. I don't know if the use case is still relevant to ZC, but the pattern is still being used in e.g. zc.notification and zope.app.preference (where it was added by me at the time).

I expect that use cases like this (looking up objects in a foreign site context) will be important for my current employer (if it continuous to use Zope in the future). -- Dieter
