[Zope] Testing security in a debug session?

[sean.upton@uniontrib.com]

getUser() does not return a user wrapped in the acquistion context of the
user folder (which newSecurityManager() needs), so this code will likely
need the first line changed to:

user = app.acl_users.getUser('foo').__of__(app.acl_users)

Something like this:

user = app.acl_users.getUser('foo')
from AccessControl.SecurityManagement import newSecurityManager
newSecurityManager(None, user)
