Whew, what a proposal and what a good sign!

As several have noted, there are quite a few proposals in the fishbowl 
that deal with different aspects of the problems.  There's also a draft 
proposal that we had here in ZC that expands on the items.  Finally, 
there appear to be a few pieces of software (yours, zctl, zopectl, etc.) 
that try to address aspects.

I suggest that we all spend some time trying to revisit all the 
proposals, obsolete the ones that are covered elsewhere, and try to find 
the common ground.  There is a dorman zope-packagers mailing list we 
could hijack for these purposes:

   http://lists.zope.org/pipermail/zope-packagers/

I think, with all the various efforts, it is time to agree on some 
standards regarding where configuration data lives and how it looks.
