All - looking for a bit of input on a dependency for zope.mimetype (zope.publisher) not advertised in setup.py for that package: zope.mimetype.typegetter imports zope.publisher.contenttype for two functions (parse() and parseOrdered()). I'm assuming this dependency is more historical than anything else, but I'm guessing out of ignorance. I'm working on a minimal-dependencies CA application (using zope.schema and zope.component only) that could likely use zope.mimetype in a context outside of a full zope 3 web publishing environment, and I was curious if this particular dependency is purposeful/desired?
