[Zope-dev] Copy, Cut and Cookies: a CopySupport.py question

To someone with perhaps more ZZen than myself .... I am trying to understand CopySupport.py - It seems that objects that are cut or copied are stored in a cookie on the client. I could see how this would be easier than trying to associate some stored data item on the server with a particular client browser, but it also seems somewhat inefficient (esp. as regards upload and download times from the client) unless the object is relatively small in size and I also wonder if this scheme would break down completely for a big object, say something a few MB in size. Am I missing something ? Or maybe this is the only reasonably sane way to do it. TIA Jeff Sasmor jeff@sasmor.com www.netkook.com is an "open Zope CMF site"
