Note that it wasn't my goal to trim the number of eggs I got,  
although trimming that, or, in theory, using zipped eggs would speed  
startup as well.  I'm using the zope.app.zcmlfiles egg as my base.

Here is the zcml file I'm including rather than incliding  
zope.app.zcmlfiles/configure.zcml:

   <configure

      xmlns:i18n="http://namespaces.zope.org/i18n"

Note that this was made by just copying the configure.zcml from  
zope.app.zcmlfiles and commenting out some things and adding  
excludes. I basically kept commenting things or excluding things  
until my tests failed. :) I could probably go a little further if I  
worked a lot harder, so of course, I stopped. :) I'll also probably  
have to add some things back later when I pay attention to i18n.  
(This app uses extjs for it's UI and I haven't figured out how I'm  
going to approach i18n for that. extjs rocks btw.)
