They are not objects in the ZODB, but class members of their respective 
classes. The 'manage_upload' method for example is a member of the DTML 
MEthod class, and of the DTML Document class and the File class, etc.

If you want to see how the manage_ userinterface is designed, you'll have 
to dive into the Zope source. You'll find that most HTML interfaces for 
example, are read from .dtml files on your harddisk at startup. The methods 
that do the actual work are mostly written in python.
