[Zope-CMF] BTreePortalFolder?

Hi.

my Members folder is going to grow to approximately 2-3 thousand folders
easily.  maybe even more.  my question is will I have any problems besides
viewing it through ZMI?  Will there be any performance issues with a Portal
Folder holding that many objects?

I tried to replace Members with a BTreeFolder and I ran into the fact that
PortalContent doesnt support operations on normal Zope Folderish objects.  I
tried to mix the two using ZClasses.  Doesnt work either -
BTreeFolder was the first one in the Base class list then
CMFCore.PortalFolder. 8(

any ideas?  should I make a BTreePortalFolder?  I would rather not.  If the
ZMI is the only part that will suffer then I can figure out ways around
that.

thanks,
