Thanks, Kapil... good suggestion. Sadly, I'm still not getting 
anywhere... I tried every combination of modules, classes, methods 
and allow_class/allow_module I could think of, and nothing works.

in Utils.py:

from Products.PythonScripts.Utility import allow_module

allow_module('MyProduct.Utils')
allow_module('Products.MyProduct.Utils')
allow_module('Control_Panel.Products.MyProduct.Utils')
    (I tried each one of the above 3)

def myclass_attr_access(name):
     return getattr(MyClass, name, None)

in Python Script:

from context.Control_Panel.Products.MyProduct.Utils import myclass_attr_access

Result:

import of "context.Control_Panel.Products.ERAA.Utils" is unauthorized


I also tried:

in __init__.py:

class Accessor:
     def myclass_attr_access(name):
     return getattr(MyClass, name, None)

allow_class(Accessor)

in Python Script:

from context.Control_Panel.Products.ERAA import Accessor

Same result. I'm stuck. Any more ideas?

TIA, Itai
