I should elaborate a bit.  The issue isn't (just) that we've  
specified dependencies incorrectly, although that is often the case,  
but that the dependencies are insane.  For example, zope.component  
depends on most of Zope 3.  I think fixing many of these issues will  
take some re-factoring.  I don't think using extras (as I did for  
zope.component) is a good solution.  (I'll expand on why I don't  
think extras are a good solution in a separate note.)
