I have only GUI code so far, because in this project, I want the UI to drive the requirements. I'm thinking about the code behind it now. One strong impression I have is that while zope.configuration is optimized for executing configurations, it isn't very good for editing configurations. For example, if the configuration has any mistakes, zope.configuration refuses to load it. That's not acceptable behavior for an editing program. Also, I need the editor to work even if the Python code loaded by the configuration is buggy. That means it's not safe to load unstable Python modules while editing configuration.
