Excellent. Well framed constructive explanation for your objections.

I'm pleased to see proposed a straightforward alternative that easy for the 
average bear in a hurry to implement.

I take it this is the ZPT whose description and examples of use feature so 
strongly in all of the books on Zope that have been published to date.

What was that you said? Oh, you mean that I have to spend _all_ my time 
keeping abreast of where Zope is going and all of its great new 
developments and shouldn't be doing anything else. Problem I have as 
regards to Zope is that my employer wants results today, well actually he 
wanted them yesterday; another photograph of some more jelly nailed to the 
tree has ceased to be acceptable as a deliverable.
