The eggified CMF already required setuptools to make sure the Products namespace is setup correctly. Considering that entire python community appears to be moving to egg, Zope2 is going to be distributed in egg form (at least there is a strong move in that direction) I think a dependency on setuptools is not problematic. >From a Plone perspective CMF 2.1 will be the last CMF version we use as products. Starting with Plone 4 we will be using the eggified version.
