[Zope-CMF] Re: [CMF-checkins] CVS: Products/CMFCore - ActionInformation.py:1.26.2.5

[Stefan H. Holek]

Don't be scared, I checked in a whole bunch of tests too. ;-)

The problem we have is that CMF evaluates permissions for 'object'  
and 'workflow' actions in the object context, and 'folder' actions in  
the folder context. Other action categories are evaluated in the  
context of the portal, which is rarely useful. Plone has 'document'  
actions and we need permissions checked on the object, not the  
portal. It is a one line change (with 4 tests). If you really don't  
want it, we will have to resort to monkey patching ActionInfo.
