In the "Methods" tab of your ZClass, try creating an "edit"
PropertySheetInterface for each property sheet.  Replace the
ZMI header / footer with a standard one, and cut / paste into
your skins.  Update the ACTION of the form to post to a Python
script which calls 'manage_changePropertes' and redirects to
HTTP_REFERRER.  Voila!
