Let's look at it:

I'm not thrilled.

Can we 'import doctest' from the stdlib, and hope that these isinstance
checks work fine?

Specifically, can we make it so that zope.testing.doctest's exceptions
_inherit_ from stdlib's doctest exceptions?

Otherwise people who convert to stdlib's doctest to avoid deprecation
warnings will lose all the nice doctest formatting and post-mortem
debugging bits they're accustomed to.

Doesn't seem like much of a change ;)

Suggest importing stdlib here as well.

A *strong* -1 for this bit.

Same here: I'd like to use stdlib's doctest.
