I am also very, very worried about breaking b/w compatibility in Zope 2.

I am responsible for about 15 sites, with say 10 distinct products 
each. Are you saying I have to evaluate/upgrade 150 products because I 
want to go to Zope 2.8(9)? No customer is going to pay for that effort 
(and I will likely not find the time to do it anyway) so I will be 
locked in 2.7-land forever. Bah!

So yes, option 3 it must be. Let's save the fundamental changes for 
Zope 3.

IMHO,
Stefan
