The question is this: do you think there should be an explicit

I think the installation should be explicit. In Zope 3 you have to
configure package/products through ZCML, in CMF/Plone you need to
use the quickinstaller tool....so as Guido tought us: explicit is
better than implicit :-)
I did forget to mention one thing... currently you can specify
*which* products you want to activate at startup via a listing of
"requirements" in a configuration file. This is another vector of
explicitness unrelated to how the program got installed.
