I agree. There should be one supported way to achive a goal. In the past we 
had at least three methods to run Zope (fortunately we kicked PCGI support
in the past). My suggestion is to deprecate FCGI officially in the docs and 
through a deprecation warning and to kick it at some time (not necessarily 
after two release cycles). So people can still use but they should know 
that they are using a deprecated feature...objections?
