I'm guessing that you plan to do "instance dict" majyk in the NZO setup
to make your patched bit work, right?  In that case, could you just
monkey-patch the tool's 'wrapUser' method, with a big XXX comment noting
that the patch can go away when NZO upgrades to 1.4 (which it ought to
do ASAP after the release, scheduled for today).

Does NZO use a vendor-imported CMF repository?  That would be another
way to resolve this issue:  you could add the patch you your vendor
import of 1.3.1, and then have it go away when you re-import 1.4.
