[Zope] Re: assignment to form records

[Fernando Martins]

Ah! Here it is ;-)

If this patch doesn't go into CVS, I'm willing to submit it to zope labs for
you, if you don't mind.

Albeit Dieter Maurer's solution is non-intrusive to Zope (after I get it to
work) this one makes it transparent for the (script) user ;-)

Cheers,
Fernando
