Yes, this is a very good example of why Chris should be in favor of leadership for the Zope Framework. The Grok project would've appreciated such improvements right there in zope.component too. When I brought up the issue of trying to improve zope.component recently, I got a lot of divergent feedback and nothing happened. It'd be nice if instead such energy instead resulted in a concrete set of actions.
