AFAIK it isn't documented and IMHO it's a bug anyway, so I suppose it
should not be documented but solved. Sigh. So much to do and so little
time.

Perhaps we have a pattern here. Just like you we use CMF, but we started
with an older version (that was mostly DTML and only some PythonScripts)
and have since then rewritten or at least changed almost everything in
the skins folders.

One problem wrt to the memory leaks we have not solved yet: When we
refresh one of our products that is part of our CMS Zope starts to leak
memory like there's no tomorrow. Restarting Zope immediately stops this.

If you have any success, even clues or insights: I'd very much
appreciate it if you kept me (or the list, of course) posted.
