I'd like to leave any zope.app.* package in the under-review section
as long as one is a dependency of a ZTK package. This includes testing
dependencies. We need to care and maintain those packages as long as
we depend on them. Otherwise we could move them to the dependency
section, so we'd make sure to have a complete working set.

Take for example zope.traversing [1] which has a major bunch of test
dependencies. I'd like the process to be: first refactor the tests,
then drop the dependency.
