I don't quite understand. What is the purpose of exporting and importing? If this feature has to be used like tar in Unix I want to be able to restore _all_ properties (owner, modification date, security settings, etc) of each item! Sure you have to be root to do it in unix.
this might not be very useful in an ISP environment, where you do application serving with zope. In this case you want to grant all your customers (== users) the right to import/export in their areas so that they don't have to bother you. Digicool: do you plan to offer an upload functionality for .zexp import just like we have a download for the export now ? this would be _very_ handy, because I do not want all my customers to be able to access the import dir on my harddrive.
