What value of X would a method M see? The value first set or the value third set?
It depends what kind of method M is (I suppose it can be called inconsistency but it is actually a feature).
DTML Methods and I believe External Methods behave different under Acquisition than the rest of the of the Zope objects. They are in effect 'attached' to their immediate Parent object in the Acquisition path. Other object, for instance DTML Documents are 'attached' to Object in which they are defined.
Is method M a DTML method?
Yes it is. I've got a rather involved framework going, and I'm trying to add some "polymophism" to it thus: <dtml-in "_.getitem(mainMenuItemsMethod,0)(REQUEST,_,_.None)"> mainMenuItemsMethod is the property X I was speaking of. So I'm doing indirection on it; get a list from whatever is described by mainMenuItemsMethod.
