This being Control_Panel/Products? If so, cool :-)
Where is this documented? How do you get the Product Registry to go away?

That would be in the prominent release notes:

http://docs.zope.org/zope2/releases/2.12/WHATSNEW.html#module-cleanup

Just disable the registry and create a Data.fs afterwards or delete
all entries in the Control_Panel/Products for an existing one. I think
HelpSys doesn't work anymore if you disable it, but otherwise all core
Zope functionality works as before.

No. This is the 'meta_types' attribute of the 'Products' module. It
drives the ZMI add list, if nothing else.
