Oh, and here's another reason: this allows registration at ZCML 
configuration time rather than import time (since we're not setting it 
up in Python) without inventing new directives:

   <utilty
     name="root"
     object=".roots.myRoot"
     provides="zope.component.IAnonymousUtility"
     />

Or in Grok speak:

     grok.global_utility(myRoot, IAnonymousUtility, name="root")

I think we'd want a less icky name than IAnonymousUtility, though.
