D'oh! That's what I get for doing a grep and not looking at the context...

I had looked at the .zexp file using less, and didn't see "Owned"
anywhere... using vi I found a reference to AccessControl.Owned, however...

So, it looks like it's the MembershipZ Product that requires 2.2.
Unfortunately, I don't know that there is any way to change this, despite
the fact that I'm not really using 2.2 features...

I've updated the page for the Product to reflect this requirement.
