I agree here, I am also not sure whether picking the extremely short 
classname Zip is actually a good thing. Perhaps ZipArchive or ZipFile 
would be more fitting in the first place, not even considering the issue 
you can have with other libraries. Complaining against the name "Date" 
and then just going in another ext with "Zip" just feels wrong. 

Although the zip ext is a useful thing to have, I think it should stay 
in PECL as Tony says we're trying to move things to PECL... so a -1 from 
me on the current proposal to add ext/zip to core with the Zip 
classname.
