Ok, I wasn't aware that five.localsitemanager restored a partial aq
chain. The RequestContainer is removed to avoid caching old requests
as part of the aq_chain of utilities.

Instead of removing the RequestContainer, it could be replaced with a
zope.globalrequest aware RequestContainer. That might be cleaner than
rewrapping in individual utilities, and would work with Zope 2.13.
