Zope defined a sub-object of the top-level object, misc_, which
has a sub-object for each product.  Each product sub-object
has subobjects for each of the keys defined in the misc_
dictionary in the product __init__.py.  This provides a mechanism
for creating product-dependent instance-independent objects
that are web accessable.
