As for the interface, i suggest to place the functions to ZConfig:
Take into account that our ZConfig handling is not clean, if we use --root.
What exactly is the problem or ambiguity?

If the chrooted system says 'arch = s390' and the outer system says 'arch = i386':
We use 'i386' but should use 's390'.
The same for the other settings like e.g. solver.onlyRequires.
A --root systems Zconfig settings may have no effect.

Hm, that sounds like something for fixing...? Why not just read the --root system's setttings? For values not specified there, use defaults, just like when in '/'.
