I think so. Does it not?

I probably would use "objectValues" instead of "objectItems".
"objectIdems" gives you a sequence of "id,value" pairs,
"objectValues" gives you just the sequence of values.

If your objects should not have an "id", the sort above would
not work. In this case, you could try:

   <dtml-in "PARENTS[0].objectItems(['ccDocClassMetaType'])" sort=sequence-key>
