If the acquired object is a 'Method' (DTML, External, ZSQL, Python) then it
reattaches itself to the object used to do the acquiring.

'Documents' (DTML, Image(?), File(?), etc(?)) acquire from the context in
which they were defined first, then from the acquiring context (sort of).

I don't know if that answers your underlying question, though.  What are you
trying to do?

Cheers,
