How about just migrating off of t.p.components and switching to PyProtocols? The license is compatible, it has PEP-backing, it is a superset of what t.p.components does, has optional Pyrex acceleration, and is compatible with Interfaces from itself, t.p.components, and zope.components. The default Interface implementation does not support the __call__ adaptation that we all know and love, but it is actually generic enough to allow it.
As a side note, PEAK's peak.util.imports.whenImported hooks, importString, and lazyModule might also be pretty useful to Twisted (among so many other things).
And, while PyProtocols doesn't seem to support any sort of lazy adapter registration, it would probably be doable via a framework built on top of whenImported. James
