The consensus was to move the testing dependencies to
extras_require.

We really need to get rid of loading zope.app.testing
as a core package for our production applications.

install_requires only needs to install what is needed 
for production.

I really like to do the next couple weeks and month
some cleanup work and this is a fundamental part.

come on, that's a real bad answer and will only stop others
from doing the right thing for you. We can't take care
on everybody if we do cleanup work. And you have always 
the option to relay on the KGS or other egg versions.
