[Zope3-dev] Some Z3 thoughts

[Lennart Regebro]

This is just some random thoughts I collected when finally taking a 
*serious* look at Zope3 earlier this week. First of all: Good work, I 
like it.

If I have missed something or is just being stupid, plese tell me. ;)

---------

Possible Z3 bugs:

   - The first action link disapperas in default skin if the action
     list is to long to fit on the screen.


   - When trying to look at some interfaces:
     Module zope.pagetemplate.pagetemplate, line 35, in __get__
     parent._cook_check() you get an error:
     AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute '_cook_check'

   - Views registered with zope.Public doesn't show up. Any other
     permission (Zope.View for example) works.

Inconstistencies:

   - ContainerTypesCONSTRAINT / ItemTypePRECONDITION ???
     They do the same thing!

Wouldn't it be nice:

   - Wouldn't it be nice to at least recommend a place for third-party
     packages? Otherwise things are gonna get SERIOUSLY messy.

   - Wouldn't it be nice to be able to specify more than one interface in
     a for="blabla.Interface" specification in zcml? Or maybe that is
     really unusual (even though it happens in the MessageBoard example).

   - Wouldn't it be nice to have the docs online too, so I don't have to
     start a local Zope3 server just to get to the ZCML reference? ;)
