Patch opportunity, perhaps? :) Ty and I would do it, no problem.
Heck,
I've been tempted to do it as a LoginManager function, since Zope doesn't pay attention to anything past the first line of the "access" file...
We would be most grateful! :-)
So are y'all at DC in agreement that this would be a useful feature with no pitfalls? Should we go through the new fishbowl process thing to do this?
Some of the crew are at oscon this week so they'll have to answer when they get back. But I am of the opinion that the fishbowl process is only needed for relatively major changes. Small modifications can just be posted, reviewed, and merged.
Hm. I don't think this could be classed as a "minor" change, however, since it has impact on ownership, for example. What's the path of the user folder which is above "/", for example? The whole thing is useless if these extra users can't be owners, and the ownership machinery right now wants an access path. I think perhaps we should go the fishbowl route on this, if only to make sure that Jim doesn't have a heart attack when he gets back. :)
