As one of the last few people to touch zope.testrecorder I should
probably speak up with some background.

The package was created several years ago to experiment with writing a
browser test recorder that could output either testbrowser tests or
old-style functional tests.

It fell into disuse from almost the start but Philipp brought it out of
mothballs to cover in his book.  Since then I don't know that anyone has
worked on it -- or that it works at all, in fact.

I don't have any problem with it being dropped from the ZTK.
