Yuck. I didn't test against the PTK, I only tested in a PTK-free
environment. AFAIK, I didn't change anything that would cause the behavior
you're describing. I'll try to play with it in my PTK Zope tomorrow.

Excellent! I'll be able to spend some time with DataSkins, then :)

To delete a user, delItem(id) should do the trick.

To change a user's password, check out the password change code in
PersistentUserSource.py. I believe the code in there requires Manager
permission to run, but will allow a manager to change any user's
password/roles.
