k, i didn't read the whole thread, but we (lovely systems) use  
zope.storm but i think its the same story somehow and we do all  
instance specific configuration in zcml - also database uris.
we have a base.zcml config for all instances and include this it and  
do all instance specific configuration in an instance specific zcml  
file. this file is then used with the site-definition otpion in  
zope.conf. i can see no reason why we should avoid zcml except in  
environments where there is no zcml at all.

although it is a few lines of code to get db uris from somewhere else,  
and this could also be application code

regards, bernd
