True, whoever cam up with 'ownership' as a concept seperate from the Owner role 
deserves to be shot. Well, provided you fix http://collector.zope.org/CMF/25, 
I'd be happy if deleteMember didn't do anything with ownership...

That would be good, but make sure it handles the cases where there's more than 
one person with the owner role on an object...
