Yep.  Someone (Jim Fulton I think) had suggested that to me.  I'll look 
into it.

My intent is to update zope.testing to the 2.5 version of doctest and 
generate a new patch against that.

It would be even better if there were a stand-alone release of doctest 
instead, or (another Jim suggestion) if doctest were made extensible.  I 
have another doctest/ReST idea I'd like to try some time (using ReST 
tables for FIT), so if there's interest perhaps I'll try my hand at a 
plugin system of some sort. (wish I could use zope.component :)
