Yep, it changes to the container interface:

   <browser:page
     for=".interfaces.ILimosvc"
     name=".Person"
     class=".browser.PersonAddForm"
     permission="zope.ManageContent"
     />

By not using IAdding, it is hard (as in I have spent 30 mins trying to make it 
work and couldn't) to reuse the default add menu. That said, who still uses 
it? :-) The Zope 3 menu code is dog slow.

Also, note that we do support IAdding for the poor souls that still have or 
want to use it. See

Regards,
Stephan
