And I suppose the other part of my wishlist:

class MyClass(Acquisition.Implicit): # your_attribute will be acquied

# index_html won't index_html = None No, that is not enough!

As a side effect to turn off acquisition, you defined the attribute. This will not play well with inheritance: You will not only prevent acquisition of "index_html" but also prevent inheritance of it (which may be really necessary in some contexts).

I'm pretty sure inheritence takes precedence over Acquisition. You wouldn't need to have index_html = None if it is inherited, since the inherited idnex_html would be used before one is acquired, surely? cheers, Chris
