I have to agree with you on that. But the current solution remains clunky.  
Having initially been against it I think it would be easier on the eye to  
have the security declaration (I'm assuming this would work for subclasses  
where it can be overwritten if needs be) in ContentAddFormBase until the  
permissions directive is supported. It was only from working with the new  
add form that I realised how little needs to be done to work with this.

I understand that.

I'm not sure I understand what you mean by that - you have a situation  
where string:${folder_url}/++add++${object_id} needs changing?

I think that we could work with a sensible default which might be  
overwritable in the aliases?

You are very welcome.
