[Zope] I cannot copy paste zClass based products

[Gilles Lenfant]

Python products and ZClass based products have theit own qualities and =
problems.

Personally, I make Python products that deal with "complex" and/or =
"unsecure" logic, then I make ZClass based subclasses for rendering =
rules.

For the copy/paste problem, you should check if one of the methods of =
your ZClass overrides the ones involved when copy and paste.

BTW. If you're making ZCLasses for making CMF content objects, you =
should subclass (in that order) :

ZObject, _ZClass_for_DefaultDublinCoreImpl, _ZClass_for_PortalContent, =
_ZClass_for_Document=20

Otherwise (for a reason I ignore), copy/paste does'nt work in the CMF =
desktop (only in the ZMI) !
