Thanks for the warning :-). If you're calling it voodoo, then it's
probably going to be hard as hell for someone like me to solve.
Though i'm still far from being up to speed with Zope3 (working
through Philipp W's book ) - I'll try to help by at least documenting
the issue and extracting as much as I can from Jim (if he allows for
it) so that others can work on it too.

Thanks,
Eric
