Not using MKCOL;  PortalFolder's handler for MKCOL (or MKDIR, in
FTP) creates another object of the same 'portal_type' as its
container.  You could derive a new class from PortalFolder which
implemented 'MKCOL' differently, perhaps using the
'content_type_registry' (as in the next paragraph).

You *could* fake it by arranging to have the 'content_type_registry'
construct your type when handling a PUT of a given name.  E.g.,
if the CTR has a rule which maps names which match "*.bundle" to
a SkinnedFolder-derived type, 'Bundle', then you could create a
Bundle object by doing "put /dev/null foo.bundle".
