[Zope] What security settings does ZWiki need

I tried testing this and seems to work.

Anonymous can "Append to ZWiki Pages", but NOT "Change ZWiki Pages"
IMHO - this should read "Add a Comment"  and "Edit this Page" to match the
UI.

And the flow is not very user Friendly.
The workflow is reversed.
Anon users should either,
-  not see the "edit this page" option, but see a login page.
-  or be required to log-in before accessing the "editform" DTML_Method.

Currently, all users can select "edit this page", make changes to the
page...only to get a log-in prompt after they have tried to edit.  Canceling
the prompt of course creates errors.  Very unfriendly.

HTH,
Trevor
