Thanks for the pointer! Though they might be easy to migrate (perhaps
intid will be a bit difficult because of the ftest), they're not
directly used by Five right now. That doesn't mean we can't move them
out of zope.app, it's just the reason I hadn't looked at them for this list.

And yes, dependencies on zope.app.i18n.ZopeMessageFactory can be ignored
because it can easily be created from scratch in 2 lines.
