Nope.  Since Zope constructors are generally implemented as functions, they
can actually create any class at all.  Of course, you won't be able to
change it later without deleting and re-adding...

Btw, do you happen to know whether locking is handled automatically on
"BDB/transaction-safe" tables, or do you still have to specify it explicitly?
