Let me get this straight, how much faster is a python product compared
to something like this done with ZClasses with some properties, ZCatalog
with a method to display them, and a few other things?.

I see some of you extra options that your proposal includes as only
impossible with a product, but just want to clarify, to myself, what
should be done in Zope and what should be done in a product. (Its
getting harder to see the difference)

I think your proposal replaces how I was going to use ZClasses etc,
which is cool :)

TIA,
David
