I understand that, but using zClasses is the wrong solution imho. I 
wrote the easyproduct exactly to get around this problem.

So getting started on a new product is even faster than a zClass. You 
just take one of two products. One based on SimpleItem the other on 
ObjectManager and do a search and replace for one word, and you are good 
to go.

And they do work right from the start ;-)
