[Zope-dev] proposal: Custom schema properties

[Adam Groszer]

Hello,

After quickly glancing over plone.behavior it seems more like
something to extend a schema, and does it solve the problem of "new
properties -- new schema -- change everything around it"?

What I need is to be able to change schema properties per site. And
skipping the need to fix the forms or whatever concerned with that
changed schema.
