If you know about software that does this, please speak up. Best I can
tell there's no software that depends on content type being
Archetypes, though some stuff like the ReferenceBrowser depends on the
IReferenceable API.

Does it? I think CMF basically needs a portal_type (I think the class
that provides this is DynamicType or something). Other than that the
*content type* doesn't need much boilerplate. What you need is to
register the factory type on the portal_types tool, but that's not
part of the *content type*.
