Hmm, I just clicked the "New" button from the 'folder_contents' view of my
unprivileged account, ans was presented with the full list.  I then logged
out, went back to my folder, typed 'folder_factories', and was presented
with only 'FAQ' as an option.  Its type object is showing up as creatable,
even though I couldn't actually add one as anonymous.

This seems to be a recurring-but-hard-to-reproduce problem (cookies

getting lost immediately after login).

It is a dead simple ZClass I threw together in about an hour the

other day.  I've just uploaded a howto, along with two export files:
