In the case of zope, at least the maintainer, Fabio Tranchitella, is
aware of the issue and promised to try working on some kind of common
templates package, IIRC.
For PHP4 things, I'm not really sure that something is really on its
way.
Clytie, you also probably went on the recurrent things which configure
databases and ask always the same kind of questions. Here, an ongoing
effort if being done to produce a dbconfig-common package which will
provide the templates for all similar packages.
But don't dream : as usual in Debian, enforcing the use of such things
takes a very long time...usually one or two release cycles.
Imagine that we are still stucked with a few packages NOT EVEN USING
po-debconf.
