HI

Big +1 from me on this.
I had to do a whole lot of hacks to get this stuff running on app engine and
basically
had to gut zope.proxy which was ugly and obviously unsupported.
After getting this running which was a big task I decided to go with
repoze.bfg which
just didn't have the security proxies at all because I wouldn't have to
support my wierd gutted
fork of zope.proxy and zope.security. (under gae I am not running any
untrusted code)

Having a standard way to turn this stuff would be great,

Rgds

Tim
