Howdy Zopistas out there!

I just ran into some kind of administrative problem: my students are 
not so willing anymore when it comes to changing links for the third 
revision of our website. There are about 200 links to change manually 
and they have my full sympathy. Apart from that this process is quite 
error-prone and always needs a lot of testing.

Is it possible to have automatic link adjustment in Zope if you 
change an objects name? I mean like in Dreamweaver or whatever 
website management programm so that it would ask whether to adjust 
the referring links if you change a page's name?

I know we could do the management partly with Dreamweaver and put the 
files via ftp but whatever sends cleartext passwords is not an 
option. So ftp is out.

Any other way?
