I'd _really_ prefer it to stay. SiteAccess rules really do tend to
be an utter bastard to debug, particularly compared to pythonmethods.

And I don't want to _think_ about trying to put a siteaccess rule into
a ZClass.

Given how PythonMethods mean you're actually writing python, I'm finding
that you pretty quickly notice the lack of some of these. (For a quick
example, start writing ZCatalog based things in a PM - things like 
uniqueValuesFor return tuples, but searchResults will only accept a list..
bah).
