While it's true that this is normal for you and me, I think the cause of 
"zope is just a library" is much helped if we *also* consider it normal 
for Zope to be installed into site-packages.

So, I just want to point out that your statement of what is normal 
doesn't imply that we consider installation with `configure` without 
'--prefix' as *abnormal* and that this is something we should support.
