Bug Description
canonical.
This results in a few problems:
- test isolation is tricky because there isn't any defined way to turn the config off completely (so that tests outside the lifetime of a transient config can error cleanly)
- the push/pop idiom becomes a bit magical - this may be addressable by tighter semantics
- we can't run two differently configured things in-process without hilarity ensuing
It would be lovely to get rid of this global and instead tie it to our processing context (currently the IAnnotations zope participation.
