zope.app packages are still out there, but no longer part of the ZTK
after Hanno's work:  he has squished (or tricked others into doing it)
all remaining dependencies within the ZTK packages on zope.app.*.  I'm
+sys.maxint on this change.

We can't be "making peoples' life difficult" by removing zope.app.* from
the ZTK, because *nobody has shipped code* which depends on the ZTK per
se.  Anybody with dependencies on those packages needs to extend their
own configuration to include them.  Hanno has been doing *more* grenade
smothering by helping finish zope.app eradication in Zope2, as well.
CMF is nearly zope.app free (one remaining testing dependency).
