Okay, I just tried this myself; it works. I imagine I got confused
developing XMLWidgets. I'm not entirely sure *how* to distribute them in a
different way, though. If I had put my ZClass in the XMLWidgets product that
appears when I make the XMLWidgets stuff in the lib/python/Products dir, and
then exported it, wouldn't we run in the same difficulties as what happened
now? Perhaps that is what I did, actually. :)

After this experiment I'd like to stress this. Perhaps I'm missing something?
