[Zope] Adding a zclass based product to a folder programmatically

[Kevin Dangoor]

Hi, Phil

    This sounds like a job for the "owner" role. My take on it is this: you
can have a method (DTML or External) with an appropriate Proxy role to
create the ZClass instance for the person. If you set the permissions such
that the ZClass instances can be modified by someone with "Owner" role, then
the users should be able to modify their homepage and not anyone elses.
