Re: Could it be possible to support configuring with *.cfg instead of *.zcml?

Introducing another configuration style to Plone core doesn't make anything
easier.

However, I would argue that using venusian as declarative style
configuration to replace grok is a step forward.
For new projects, those who favour declarative style configuration could
use venusian as a replacement of zcml
and when the community grows, the debate can go further.

One very big good plus of this experiment is that Plone will converge with
Pyramid stack, at least easing adoption of Python 3.

 Venusian is a simplification of Martian: decorators are deferred:
information is later collected during "scan" phase and configured
appropriately. And most importantly - it's very well documented.
