I'm still not sure about this one. zope.Public and zope.View have their 
equivalents in Zope3, for example. Why would we want to use a different 
prefix? It's not like we would be defining Zope3 and Zope2 permissions 
at the same time. Rather, we would maybe include some Zope3 packages 
that rely on zope.* permissions... That *could* be solved using 
redefinePermission, but that's just one more indirection.

So, I'm -1 on this. It's not a strong -1, but I would like to know first 
why you guys think it should be renamed.
