Well, I don't think we have to make every single subpackage its own egg. 
We should pick our battles and start with those individual eggs that can 
actually be used w/o Zope 3, e.g. zope.app.container, zope.app.form, 
etc. I don't think we need to create individual eggs for each package, 
especially those that will disappear soon anyway because of BBB.

I suggest we come up with a prioritized list instead of alphabetical.

Sure, we *can*, but I think it's a lot of work and we don't necessarily 
have to do all of them. That isn't to say I don't appreciate your work 
going into this effort, I just think it could be used more effectively ;)
