I think this is a non-usecase. zope.app is a namespace for the "app" part  
of Zope. If you want to use a part of this app then it's reasonable to  
assume that you want the rest: caveat developor!

No, having apps trying to guess about their use as library code is a bad  
idea and should not be encouraged.
