Because it makes every project that uses sources in a meaningful way depend on 
zope.app.form, which has a lot of dependencies that I do not want. It 
prohibits another form framework, such as z3c.form  to not depend on 
zope.app.form, which suck to say the least. :-)

An alternative to Roger's proposal would be to move the ITerms declaration and 
any possible generic implementation of such into its own package zope.terms.
