I was doing a demo yesterday moving objects around using DCWorkflow
and it seems as a Member I could not paste to a folder I did not have
permissions to create objects. I put a proxy role on the object and
that didnt help. Recently I spoke w/ Brent Hendricks who said he
got burnt by this and Dieter said it was a "Well known bug". Very
strange because I swore (and sidnei as well) that I have done this
in the past.
Is this going to be fixed? I also tried this in an ExternalMethod and
it was complaining inside an External Method (which I thought bypassed
*all* security). Sometimes I would like to say "._v_disregard_security=1"
and just have the entire security system not execute.
What I ended up having to do to get around it is a most gruesome
hack which can be found here:

I have to setLocalRoles on the folder, paste into the folder, and
then removeLocalRoles from the folder. this is really miserable -
is this what everyone else is doing?
cheers,

p.s. Dieter I hope you dont mind I CC'd you - I really want your
opinion of this situation.
