| I hope another one came up:
|
| The ability for developers to re-use bits of the ZMI. Another Zope 2 gripe
| is that you couldn't for example, re-use the object list widget that
| ObjectManager provided (a better example is that I can't re-use the tab
| widget along the top for doing other blocks of tabs...), hence why Shane
| had to copy and paste the code for BTreeFolder, and why it now has trouble
| getting the improvements that have been fed into the ZMI since.
|
| Two things for this:
|
| 1. Try and break the pages down into re-usable widgets
| 2. Have those widgets only use interfaces, so they can be applied to other
| objects which implement those interfaces differently.
|
| what do people think?

I think that would be great, and seems to match the idea of reutilization 
behind Zope3.
