I've been using this method posted by Alan on zope labs, and it 
works for me. I also verified that it is a preferred method for CMF 
content with some of the contributors here on the mailing list.

For folder I've been using -

context.invokeFactory(type_name='FolderType', id='yourID')

Both work equally well in my application and context.
