Maybe, maybe not. I think perhaps the most compelling argument from Digital Creations' viewpoint for having an expanded "access" file
might be
the simplification of the setup process for customers. And it would also make it easier to:
1) Phase out unownedness (user databases wouldn't need it) 2) Narrow the role of superuser (super-can-create hack can go away) 3) Do Zope virtual hosting and give somebody a Zope root and even superuser, while still being able to log in 4) Stop all the whining from people who want to know why superuser can't create or own objects any more. :)
This sounds great, what happened about it?
You speak in the past tense. This is only a suggestion and a possibility. It's not as important as some other feature requests.
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! :-) Shane
