The docutils package in my private branch currently lives under 
lib/python/docutils.
This might gives some conflicts with a docutils package installation outside
Zope. Since I added a customized writer for the reST integration there is
some risk that the reST integration might breeak.

@David: would it be safe to move the package to 
lib/python/restructuredtext/docutils
to enfore the use of this package or is there a better and cleaner solution?
