When Tres and I added this, we planned specifically to see how it was
received by the Zope 2 community.  If people liked the way this was
done, it could be added to Zope 3.

That said, I don't think Jim's concerns are limited to the Zope
configuration schema, but extend to configurations that do not
necessarily involve the Zope application server at all.

It may be that a better foundation schema is something to experiment
with, especially for non-Zope applications.

I don't expect to have any time for this in the near future.
