I should have been more explicit. I can never call the index_html
in that PropertyFolder. In fact, I can't even create it. (Yes, I
tried this approach for awhile.)
My solution is to use "index" instead of "index_html" in the ZODB.
("index_html" always struck me as a really dumb name for something
that might not even generate HTML. Regardless, having a content
type in a URL is embarrassing.) I already stopped using index_html
in most of my systems long ago, so this shouldn't be a big deal
unless users import things from elsewhere.
Thank you for the suggestion.
