That would be really strange!

If the Management Interface does not see them there, you
do you see them there?

This must be completely innocious!

It simply sets "Owner" in "REQUEST" and your "manage_editProperties" below
puts the value into the property.
I do not see a reason why it should show up in "example2".

But, I am sure, I do not understand something essential in your
setup: e.g. where the ZCatalog comes in.

I am sure, it is.

Please explain the "hence".

I may then understand the relation between "Owner" and "seen in
"example2".
