ZCA is probably not really useful here.
What I think Lukasz is asking for is an example of how to use the
existing include() machinery to include some configuration that
registers one or more views. That's just a matter of:
def includeme(config):
config.add_view(...)
if __name__ == '__main__':
config = Configurator()
config.include(includeme)
But I think he wants to see a more complicated example that does
something else. I don't really know.

Talking about "plugin systems" is probably overeager here. I think what
Lukasz may need to do is to enumerate the goals implied by his use of
the term "plugin system" and maybe describe one (read: not all!) of
those goals in concrete detail so we can provide an example of how he
might accomplish it using the existing machinery.
