I've been thinking we'll probably use "label interfaces".  Label 
interfaces are like marker interfaces with the distinction that they are 
identifiable by a simple string name.

The exact details of how label interfaces are created and stored have 
not been decided, but I did a little proof of concept that let you 
create and use label interfaces through the web using a CVS version of 
Zope.  The UI was a little too complex, but we should be able to improve 
upon it.
