Mucking about the fishbowl on a different mission got me a rejected
http://dev.zope.org/Wikis/DevSite/Proposals/InterfacesMappedToIds and "(We
ended up coming to the idea of "Services" instead)".  Sorry for the static,
then, I guess... isn't the CMF services concept specific to tools, though?

And, perhaps a better question: should I consider the Zope3-dev list to
primarily have its topics introduced by the devs?  Would this be a better
subject matter for the normal Zope-dev list?  I haven't seen an explicit
etiquette expressed in that regard, but wondered if either or both of those
might be the case.
