I wonder why z3c.javascript and z3c.widget contain so many subpackages. 
Having a flatter package structure would have been nicer and, I guess, 
easier for individual eggification.

Paul has a point with the 14 MB egg. Also, I often find myself only 
needing the DateTime widget from z3c.widget, but none of the rest. I 
wish there simply was z3c.datetimewidget...
