No I excpect some of them, but others excpect others.
So I'm pretty shure if we count all different setup then
we can excpect all packages in the summary.

That's the problem you only solve your problems with
this pattern. but the zope namspace suggest participation.
And you can't ensure quality wiht this point of view.

I agree,
Zope 3 is not a application, but packages in this namespace 
can break things outside of your context.

That doesn't matter if this are packages in a 3rd party
namespace, but this should not happen in the zope namespace.
