[Zope3-dev] FTP mkdir in root folder makes more root folders

I noticed that when you FTP into Zope3 and do a mkdir in the root
folder, the created folder ends up also being of class "RootFolder". I
noticed this because the WMI breadcrumb trail for such a folder
incorrectly shows the created folder as being "[top]"
If you make a folder through the web interface, and then within that
folder do a FTP mkdir, it ends up being a plain folder - and shows a
correct-looking breadcrumb trail.
Looking in src/app/ftp/__init__.py, it seems like the mkdir method must
basically make new folders that are the same class as their parent
folder - which sounds like a good idea in general, if you have custom
photo-folders and such, but maybe there needs to be an exception for the
case of the root folder.
