[Zope3-dev] traversing path from scratch

I'm busy busy today, but following along--just wanted to point out that
placeful Addable services and placeful Factory services will mean that you
can have very clear control over what products are available in what branch
of your ZODB--even to the point of overriding global factories and addables,
eliminating their availability, and so on.  It's very powerful; as long as
you don't want two virtual hosts pointing to the *same* folder as root but
with different available products (yagni I hope!) then most cases should be
covered.

Hope that made some muddled sense ;-)

Yes, but what if I want *different* services and security
policies?  I'm not saying this is needed for sure, just thinking
out loud.  And remembering all the problems that the "common
products folder" causes for virthosting in Z2.
