I'm +1 on zc.configuration.

z3c.unconfigure, however, will contain zope.component specific code to  
"unconfigure" subscribers (which currently have no useful  
discriminator). So it's a hack to make it work with existing Zope code  
out there. If zope.component.zcml were changed to emit useful actions  
for <subscriber /> (and <interface />, too!), we could solely rely on  
shooting down actions and the code could find its way into  
zope.configuration. That will only help us with future Zope code, not  
with existing code out there (which this is for).

Feel free to undertake this :)
