Generalize zope.preference beyond strictly User Preferences? #4

Open Sheldon-Smith opened 6 years ago

Sheldon-Smith commented 6 years ago

The current implementation of zope.preference is quite specific to user preferences; however, it seems with a small amount of additional abstraction it could be generalized to support preferences across many contexts. Specifically, at a site or realm-level zope.preference could be leveraged to control configuration on the fly in a manageable way. Is generalizing this library beyond user preferences a reasonable extension?

This could be an idea but I currently have no use case for such an extension, so I'd say a PR is welcome.
