There is a proposal something like this in the works.

With the advent of Zope 2.2, the first thing you need to do is to create a management user. You cannot use the 'superuser' to manage content. I know this is a little unfamiliar, but, for now, just suspend disbelief and create another user with the 'Manager' role (by visiting the acl_users User Folder and adding a user). Then quit the browser, and log in as the user you created. You'll then be able to follow the cmg.
Couldn't the zope install be modified to prompt for a 'Manager' username and password and then create that account from the outset?
