The motivation is that there is a simple interface IDCTimes which  
defines created and modified. The IZopeDublinCore combines IDCTimes  
with a lot other interfaces. There is no need to adapt to the large  
IZopeDublinCore when the simple IDCTimes is enough.

In fact I have a sub class of Image which is not annotatable and gets  
it's created/modified from somewhere else. So I have an IDCTimes  
adapter and started to wonder why the view behaves strange.

Hope that's okay :)
