'a' does not know 'b', but 'b' depends on 'a'.
The menu 'b_view' is in that respect something like a meta-information 
on the application/framework level.
Within Zope this application-level-part is handle by the direct iclude 
'<include package="zope.app" />' which is proceeded before all 
*-configure.zcml's.
Other application/framework may need similar kind of configurations for 
establishing theirs meta-application-level.
