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.
