Hm, have you tried using a DTML Method for addFolderForm? This looks like
the problem of trying to add a folder to a DTML Document. This doesn't work
and it adds the added object to the acquisition root. As you describe it
(you actually do end up in the addFolderForm in the right destination?),
this sounds as if it should work.
