After a new thought, I doubt this is worth the effort.

  When "pypackage" is part of Zope why should Zope not
  depend on it?

  Of course, this should not apply to third party products.
  And indeed, as long as they do not want to run from
  a zip archive or as part of a frozen application, they
  can ignore "pypackage".

  When they use "package_home" (rather than "dirname(__file__)"
  to access package local resources, they are independent
  of any "pypackage" consideration.
