You may want to look at the Gestalt System:
I browsed the info when they first announced it and looked it over again, to see if there was anything substantially different. I believe we are attempting to perform different tasks at possibly fundamentally different levels. I believe we need a more general approach to the interface problems, more like what Philip and Ty are doing with the LoginManager. I.e. make Zope smarter about how to handle its data source objects than trying to make its data source objects smarter. Of course I could be wrong in my perception of what they are trying to accomplish, but I have developed several unstructured, real-time feedback systems to investigate true Gestalt rules of perception and I don't really see a viable 'gameplan' there... Thanks Much!
