That just has the disadvantage that you're increasing the number of configuration files to maintain in an instance. If it's imported and used in zope.conf at leaast there's just one file to deal with...
This is true. Is that really important, though? Adding this ability would be a new feature, so not available until 2.9. I got the impression people want to do this now. It makes a lot more sense to pick something that can be used both now and into the future than hack something together. If someone wants to create a way to manage product-specific configurations in a single file, it's not hard to create a Python package to support that, and products that want to have their configuration placed in that file could set themselves up to use %import in that file. I've no need of that myself, but others are certainly welcome to create such a package; it may be a reasonable addition for 2.9, and could be distributed separately for use with 2.7/2.8. -Fred -- Fred L.
