It's not currently and until there's a light-weight version that makes
sense for minimal Zope installations, I would argue that it should never
be.

Please keep in mind that some of us use Zope as an embedded application
server. Zope needs to remain flexible in terms of how it can be
distributed. If zope/app/configure.zcml grows unabated, Zope will become
unnecessarily brittle.

Thanks goodness we have package-includes, right?
