Is that strictly neccessary, or can I just have a few Python
Scripts in the RenderingKind specialist? Won't those work
just as well?

BTW, I thought that with the setup I described, I should be
able to access the settings data through the web, ie:

http://myserver.com/ArchiveImages/RenderingKinds/thumbnail/

where RenderingKinds has an index_html has a <dtml-var
maxdimension> in it. But this fails, and reports a
non-existent variable 'maxdimension'.

Obviously I'm doing something wrong, but I don't know what.
