Am i right ?

Basically, yes - but a reasonable approach would of course be to first 
identify common patterns in existing classes and try to manifest the 
most-common approach in an interface. This way, the required changes 
should be minimal.

If so, we talk about the same data system, only differs its way of 
integration through ZF.

Yes.

As a personnal developper, at my house, i found it more reasonable not 
to touch ZF components already written by dev. team :)

I try not to have to maintain customized versions of ZF classes, that's 
really not an option. My approach would be to try and convince the ZF 
community (hellooo, anyone want to join in on the discussion? :-)) that 
this would be a neat feature to have because it greatly simplifies 
interoperability between components, and then make it an official part 
of ZF.

Anyway, we can mix all that mess, beggining by adapters, then, extending 
ZF components.
Something like that...

Actually, I wouldn't want to put too much effort in this if no one else 
seems interested, as I can't just go around and change existing 
components just because I feel like it :-D
