Without a committment to a "zapi-style" (i.e., permananent, canonical API import module), I am -1 on "convenience imports": they mask dependencies, help create cycles, etc. In *this* case (upgrading to a new major version of the whole Zope2 appserver framework) a deprecation seems warranted: nobody is going to "accidentally" upgrade to Zope 2.12 and start seeing deprecatino warnings they don't expect.
