I am *not* against other developers using bits of Zope. So I am sort of 
being the devils advocate here.

But everytime it is mentioned, it is allways mentioned as a purely good 
thing. But it is in fact not without cost.

Eg. conflicting interrests of 'external' and 'internal' users, or code 
that becomes more complex because of different use cases.
