Yay for Tres! :)

Nice. Without knowing anything about your Boston.com tool, would this  
allow us to ship "FSActions" like the other FS-based stuff in CMF - and  
let the user do a "customize" on actions like they do with templates?

This would help with the #1 headache in migrations to newer versions - now  
we have to poke at the actions in the ZODB and try to figure out things,  
with FS-based actions, we could change them on the file system, and they  
will automatically be updated if you haven't customized.
