The problem is the form. The form says meta type, but it means 'Type'.
Fix the form, and this problem (bit me too) goes away.

On that note, the personalize_form need to check for a logged in user. As it sits
now, it will return an atrribute error if you are not logged in. I changed mine to 
check for Anonymous role, and if present, raise Unauthorized.

I'd supply a patch, but it is all of three lines, and those with CVS write access can 
propbably patch it in their sleep it is so simple. :)
