+1 here.  Separation of concerns is a good thing and has been proven as
such over and over again.

Well, it seems that everyone has ideas on what would make their life
easier in this new AT/zope3 hybrid schema world.  Probably would be good
to compile a list at some point.  But as for your comment specifically,
zope.formlib should already do what you're talking about.  It generates
full pages based on z3 schema's.  Or are you referring to the fact that
you want the same number of views auto-generated as AT currently does?
(base_view, base_edit, etc)
