I'd like to point out that a __setstate__ method, like a __str__
method, cannot be created in a ZClass. Any particular reason why? How
about providing the functionality of a super-"Renderable Base Z-Class"
automatically to all ZClasses by creating default __str__, __setstate__,
etc. methods that map to valid DTML method names?
