[Zope] Hotmetal Pro 6 as Zope design tool

I've been evaluating WYSIWYG HTML editors at work and consequently downloaded an
eval version of HotMetal Pro 6.0.  In preliminary testing, I found it works
quite compatibly with Zope.  It includes bidirectional FTP, so I can navigate to
a folder in Zope, edit the raw DTML documents or methods, and save it back into
Zope.  I haven't had the chance to do much more than a few quick edits, so can't
swear that it won't mess things up, but so far looks good.

Other tools seem to want to use HTML to grab content, and Zope obligingly
renders the content - not what I had in mind.

Anyone else taken a look at this, and any reactions?
