-Review impact of missing Data.fs.in
-
-  The branch install process doesn't copy the "Data.fs.in" file to an
-  instancehome/var directory.  This file is the "initial" filestorage
-  for Zope that gets copied to "Data.fs" during installation in every
-  prior branch of Zope.  This file is evil and must die at some point,
-  and most of the necessary code to set things up properly in the face
-  of an empty Data.fs already exists in OFS.Application.initialize.
-  Things seem to work fine without Data.fs.in but we should just give
-  it a bit of review to see what gets left out, if anything.
-
-  When we find that Data.fs.in isn't necessary, we need to remove it
-  from the HEAD.
-
-  XXX What is actually needed to verify that it isn't needed?
-
-  AAA The best way to do this is to write a unit test which verifies
-      that the default objects installed into a "new" ZODB when Zope
-      starts are present and working, and their content either matches
-      the content of what would have come from Data.fs.in or is "close
-      enough".  The code that installs these default objects exists in
-      the initialize function within lib/python/OFS/Application.
