No to both

I'd think so.

 From the standpoint of trying to prevent reinventing wheels all over  
the place it sounds like a good idea to re-use a Zope 3 component.  
However, beware of backwards-compatibility in terms of software and in  
terms of persistent data generated by the existing version. Like Tres  
always says, "persistence means always having to say you're sorry".

Essentially, if you can do it while retaining backwards compatibility  
I'd be all for it.
