They're pretty much the same thing. A folder is essentially the 
Zope-application analogue of a module: a collection of methods. True, 
you can't have folder-level code, but you can contain types of methods 
other than Python: ZPT, SQL, Perl, or whatnot, and call them all similarly.

Of course, in Zope3 we will (probably!) have a structure just like you 
describe. But for the moment, that's neither here nor there.
