[Zope-CMF] DCWorkflow variables -- setting then using as guards

[Matt Behrens]

Hi all, did some mailing list trawling but came up a little empty-handed 
here.  I hope this is not obvious. :-)

My workflow object (ZClass-based, PortalObject) needs to somehow be 
"assigned" at some point to a particular user (by a managerial user), 
and that assigned user needs to be able to execute certain transactions.

I thought perhaps workflow variables were good for this, but I can't 
determine a way to set them to a user-specified value as supplied in a 
web form.  This is just an intranet app so I'm perfectly happy with a 
method that isn't entirely secure provided I can hide that insecurity 
behind "this is what you're supposed to do" forms.
