I think I'm not understanding this aspect of the Zope Component Architecture.

Let's suppose I have an adapter called my_adapter, which belongs to a
framework called framework_1. Then I write a new framework, called
framework_2, built on top of framework_1. Then I write an application,
built on top of framework_2. Shouldn't I be able to provide a custom
implementation of my_adapter on framework_1 and my application ?

I'd appreciate if you help me to clarify this doubts.

PS.: Besides z3c.unconfigure there's another hope: monkey patch :D
