Evan - If it works like you say, it will mean I get to strip quite a bit
of ugly code out of GUF (or at least skip it if the Zope version number
is high enough) :-) I have no time atm though to check for sure...

I would want this patch to be part of an official Zope release first -
I don't want to have part of my installation instruction involve patching
sections of DC's code :-)

It might be possible to intigrate with SiteAccess without the patch
being released by DC - I would need to ensure GUF works without it though
(since I have no need of SiteAccess on my own site atm).
