Well, maybe, but the *quoting* of your quote was definitely Casey Duncan (I think).  DRAT!  I apologize about that, Shane, because I really appreciate how well you elucidated what I consider an important potential for Zope 3, also well said by you here:

>Now, I could imagine a module wizard or even a TTW module editing interface.  It would not replace modules, but it would help you create/edit the text of a module.  It would provide nearly all of the features that the ZClass UI gives you today.  It might be a nice way to get started with Python.

Thanks and sorry again.
