[Zope] WorldPilot Acquisition?

[Mike Fletcher]

I've been mucking around trying to get Acquisition to work with WorldPilot
objects (I want to define methods/documents that can query WorldPilot's
"normal" objects (Events, Address Cards, Notes, Todos, etceteras), and the
collections of the same.  So far no luck (I don't really understand
everything going on under the covers of either Zope _or_ WorldPilot, so I'm
not likely applying pressure at the right points).  I've been adding
Acquisition.Implicit to the hierarchies of just about every object with no
luck so far.

Does anyone have ideas on how to go forward?  Could I alter the "normal"
objects in some way to make them accessible at a higher-level (for example,
if I could get at the objects in a flat collection, I could run my queries
against them, using their types to sort into virtual collections).

I suppose, in a pinch, I could just read the local files and construct a
query against them, but that seems... well, too incredibly hacky.
Incidentally, why does WP use all these custom storage mechanisms?  The
actual objects don't seem too complex, and the interface doesn't _seem_ like
it would require the support.

Ideas appreciated,
Mike
