I would really not like this, I think. Then I prefer the current method. I 
think this method removes us too far from other naming conventions, like the 
one in Java for example.

Now that I think about it some more, I really would like to have interfaces 
and browser back into the code tree. I think the separation is useless. I 
have had not one experience yet, where I have not looked at code, ifaces and 
views at the same time. When writing views you will have to look at the code 
eventually. This might not be ideal, but I found myself doing it all the 
time. Also, I think we do not expect people to edit the actual FS code that 
much, since development will happen in the ZODB anyways.

So, going back (for example) to 

zope.app.workflow
zope.app.workflow.browser
zope.app.workflow.interfaces

would be much nicer than

zope.app.workflow
zope.app.browser.workflow
zope.app.interfaces.workflow

Stephan
