[Zope] Editing via XML-RPC?

I use emacs. I want to use emacs for much of the Zope work I do. My Zope installation doesn't allow for direct ftp access through/to ZServer. (I can't change the way it's set up, either.) Since I can't ftp into ZServer, I can't use the emacs/ftp solution. Is editing in emacs and publishing to my Zope via XML-RPC feasible? It sounds simple; when a file is saved, wrap the file in an XML-RPC request, then send it to Zope. Am I missing something? - Bob
