[Zope] - ANN: AutoMessageDialog patch

When editing files via the web in Zope, pressing the Change button gives
you a dialog saying "Your changes have been saved", after which you get to
click Okay to continue working.  If you work by editing/saving/reloading
the same page iteratively, this can get tedious.

This patch creates a AutoMessageDialog object.  It functions just like the
tradional MessageDialog, but it *times out* after a couple seconds,
sending the user to the next page.  The AutoMessageDialog is installed in
the edit-document page, but no others, and the timeout is defaulted to 2
seconds.

Lemme know if this is useful.
