[Zope-CMF] Skinning (translating) the actionbox

[Paul Everitt]

I think that having Python Scripts in skins as the "presentation logic"
is a good idea, and that this is a good candidate for a Python Script. 
That is, a Python Script that returns a sequence of sequences:

ActionsItems.py
----------------

def list_action_items():
  return [
    ('Action One Label', '/action/one/url'),
    ('Action Two Label', '/action/two/url'),
    ]

It's hard to construct something more convenient than Python for
representing this.
