I exported out all the good bits and then re-initialised my db. I knew
that I had to delete things, just forgot a particular instance. Overall
a real pain. Incidentally even after I deleted the xmlwidget subtree of
Products I stll saw a fake XMLWidgets product in zope. I was unable to
delete the product. What's the correct way to remove a product?
