-1, for reasons I've stated before.  This is Zope 3's problem;  we 
*can't* inflict the pain on the large set of installed production 
servers to favor "cleanliness" for the one only installed by 
arrow-backed pioneers.  We would be *much* better off with the status 
quo ante than with such a "solution".
