The 'Creator' method in CMFDefault.DublinCore *currently* queries
Zope's "executable owner" for the content object, which is what Flynt's
external method would allow you to change.  A better implementation
would return instead the user (or users) who have the "Owner" role
on the object;  this would make changing the value simpler, and more
in line with what you would expect.
