PARENTS is a Python list of Zope objects. PARENTS[0] is the parent of the
current object, usually the folder the object is in, PARENT[1] is that object's
parent, etc, etc.

So, the root object is the last object in this list. [-1] is a nice little piece
of syntax that points to the last item in a list.

It's not pretty, but it works, I wonder if we couldn't have a ROOT object
instead? How about being able to define this so that if you had more than one
site per Zope installation, you could set ROOT as appropriate?

Hmm, I wonder about setting this as a folder property...

Ideas, anyone?
