[Zope] This is driving me nuts! - unable to edit users

[Stefan H. Holek]

Kevin!

You have something called 'user' in your system. A folder, or method, or 
something. The user management screens find you 'user' object instead of 
the parameter passed to them. Consider 'user' a reserved word and don't use 
that name for your own things.

HTH,
Stefan
