Globals does this import so that you can do:

  from Globals import Persistence

the advantage of this is that it will not break
when we move to the thing FKA BoboPOS3.  FKA BoboPOS3
will have a package name.  Globals will be changed to use
the new package name and applications that get persistence from
Globals won't have to change.

A possible better alternative would be to create a separate
Persistence module (or package) that exports Persistent and
PersistentMapping.  I'm kind-of leaning toward this second
approach.

Right.  The sample product hasn't been updated for Zope yet. :(
