Having deferredimport make this indeed much nicer. Thanks.

Because we need it for BBB for the time being. You currently still can 
define layers in ZCML without having a real interface backing it up. 
This is deprecated, of course, but it's still possible for BBB. ZCML 
needs to support these dynamically created layers, hence LayerField 
needs to stick around. It will be removed and replaced by a simple 
GlobalInterface field in Zope 3.5.
