[ZODB-Dev] DBTab mounts

[Rocky Burt]

Not sure if this is a bug or feature... 

  1) I have a plone (CMF) site with id 'plone' at the root.
  2) I specify my DBTab sql mount to be at '/plone/sql'.
  3) As a result, DBTab creates a regular folder with name 'plone' at the root
     (so yes, i now have two items with id 'plone' at the root) and then
     creates a subfolder 'sql' in the 'plone' folder.

What I would like to have happen is...

  1) I have a plone (CMF) site with id 'plone' at the root.
  2) I specify my DBTab sql mount to be at '/plone/sql'.
  3) As a result, DBTab creates a new folder in the existing plone site
     with id 'sql'.

Now, in addition to this, I'd also like to have some way for the 'sql' folder
to actually show up as a plone folder instead of a regular zope folder.  But
I understand (or figure) that's an entirely separate issue.


The affect of this is that I can write all of my application logic (skins,
form actions, workflows, etc) and have it all stored in the regular zodb.  But
I can have client data (actual CMF content) stored in the rdbms where they
want it.  The best of both worlds.  Especially since it's only the clilent
who'd ever really want to use a rdbms for his data.
