But at least you do have to specify which eggs you will be using. There's no longer a folder whichwill magically add any modules in it to sys.path. Now, as long as youdeclare the egg in buildout and add it to site.zcml and configure the eggcorrectly you're sorted. Maybe it's the five:loadProducts stuff in site.zcml that's keeping us tied to Products. A namespace change isn't that important and probably is a lot of fairly uninteresting work for little perceived gain.
Renaming provides less than little perceived gain. It adds serious pain because then you must go about registering your package manually, you must change imports all over, and you force every package that depends on the CMF to do the same. Besides, the different CMF packages are standard Zope2 products. Leaving them in the Products namespace makes that very clear.
