At the moment, you will need either to do this as an ExternalMethod,
or else add an alias and some module security declarations to
CMFCore.utils.py;  the issue is that the method, '_format_stx',
can't be called from TTW code unless it a) loses the leading underscore,
and b) gets "tagged" as safe for TTW code.

An ExternalMethod might look like:

   from Products.CMFCore.utils import _format_stx

   def format_stx( text, level=1 ):
       return _format_stx( text, level )

Tres.
