When you  use the CMF (or Plone which is build on top of CMF),
then there is the "Filesystem Directory View".
As its name suggests, it makes the content of a directory
in the file system available as Zope objects.

We use it heavily to have all our infrastructure (templates, logic)
in the filesystem, managed via CVS/SVN.

The CMF comes with other nice utilities as well: we make
especially heavy use of the "ActionsTool" and the "SkinsTool".

You will like them, once you get acquainted...
