The right way would be to refactor ZConfig and decouple it in a reasonable 
way from its dependencies. ZConfig is a very smart module to define 
configurations and to verify configuration files. Replacing ZConfig with a 
very dumb format and moving more complexity (verification, argument 
conversion etc.= into the app layer is the wrong way. Apps should not have 
the need to deal with such low-level issues.
