Yep, changing the action that addFolderForm invokes to a DTML method,
not a DTML document, does the trick.  Thanks.

But is this really because it was trying to add a folder to a DTML
document?  tree-item-url was always a folder, and it doesn't matter
that addFolderForm is still a DTML document, just the action of that
form.

A DTML document is it's own self, while a DTML method is a method of
its container, but I don't see why it would work at the acquisition
source if it doesn't elsewhere.
