I am not sure about the most recent Zope/ZODB versions.
But, up to Zope 2.8/ZODB 3.4, Jonathan was right:
Beside configuration, there have been MountPoint objects
in the ZODB that handled the mounting magic.
While not completely impossible, I would be very surprised if the need
for MountPoint objects were dropped in newer Zope versions...
