[Zope-dev] Product Icon

I am currently working on a product which has the sole purpose of
referencing other objects. One of the properties is the path to
another Zope object. Then methods are defined like getObject(),
getPath(). We use it as a way to manage news and events that show
on several sites that opperate on our Zope server. It allows one
group to add a news document in their folder and if another group
would like that news item to show on their site they can create a
reference to it.

Anyway, what happens from time to time is an object is referencing
another object when it gets deleted/renamed/moved and that breaks the
reference. The product handles this gracefully, however I would like
to have the icon change from our standard icon to a broken icon.

Any hints?
