Yes, those are definitely useful. I mean, I don't doubt there are use 
cases for something like Five, I'm talking about use cases for moving 
Zope 3 packages into Zope 2. Presumably you'd like to be able to 
subscribe to events and the like, so does that mean Zope 2 needs ZCML 
too? You quickly get very close to Five territory then.

Part of the Zope 3 event story is actually already implemented in Five, 
though not tested a lot as far as I know.
