I would have thought that this would work.

<dtml-call "_.getitem('sequence-item',0).manage_addProperty('foo','bar','string')">

ought to.  Or, if they are zclass instances, .propertysheets.<yoursheet>.manage_addProperty...

Of course, I'm saying this without testing anything, so caveat emptor.

This would be a good thing to do in a pythonscript rather than a dtml method,
by the way.
