The "database opened" event from zope.processlifetime is already used, zope.app.publication is needed for this function in zope.app.generations.utility:

def getRootFolder(context):
    return context.connection.root().get(
        zope.app.publication.zopepublication.ZopePublication.root_name, None)

I think this function is needed in every generation script.
Is there another way to get the root folder?
Should the root_name be hard coded here instead of importing it?
