[Zope] ImportError on Zope 2.3.0 alpha 1

The  following method worked on 2.2.4, but fails on 2.3.0a1:

<dtml-call "REQUEST.set('newdoc','tdoc')">
<dtml-call 
"manage_addProduct['OFSP'].manage_addDTMLDocument(newdoc,newdoc,file
=URL)">
<dtml-with "_.getitem(newdoc)">
<dtml-call "manage_addProperty('newprop','hello','string')">
</dtml-with>

Actually, "manage_addProperty" doesn't seem to work at all, throwing an error 
message like

Error Type: ImportError
Error Value: cannot import name checkValidId

Traceback (innermost last):
...
  File /home/strobl/Zope-2.3.0a1-src/lib/python/OFS/PropertyManager.py, line 
247, in _setProperty
    (Object: testdoc)
ImportError: (see above)


Indeed, line 247 (and 248) contain a mistake. Changing

        from ObjectManager import checkValidId
        checkValidId(self, id)

to

        from ObjectManager import check_valid_id
        check_valid_id(self, id)

fixes the problem. A quick search only finds a single definition/use of  
check_valid_id aka checkValidId. What do the Zope naming rules say about 
how such a method has to be named?
