[Zope] breadcrumbs ques

[Jens Vagelpohl]

i'm not saying anything about the status or beauty of code in the zope2 
core. all i am saying is that PARENTS is used all over the place and 
taking it out would probably require some major work. so for me, 
combined with the fact that there is no definite statement anywhere 
about its deprecation, that means PARENTS is not deprecated. pretty 
simple, eh?
