That's what we tried first. But it turned out that Zope 3's site manager 
code caches the utilities across request boundaries. AFAICT it would 
have been necessary to rewrite the registry code completely to make sure 
we return always the right request.

They would be nearer to tools, but also more distant from zope 3 
utilities. I doubt that would really be a win.
