I have a few tutorials / How_to's on zope.org. And sometimes I get some 
interresting mails because of that.

Somebody asked me today why _setObject() has that name, as it is used in 
many products, and thus ought to be an interface method. And called 
something like "setObject()" or "manage_setObject()" And also he didn't 
understand why it wasn't documented anywhere.

So why is that? does anybody know?
