No I don't think so. I think the new way just saves you a lot of overhead and 
nasty monkey patching. People still have to think (they even have to think 
harder) how to place a 3rd party object into Zope 3, since you have to create 
directives, views, declare interfaces and so on. This way it becomes much 
clearer what the purpose of this new 3rd party object plays in the Zope 3 
Framework.
