What happens? Do you get an exception, when you try to add a property
to something else? Are the properties just added to the wrong object?

In the first case, we need to know "Error type", "Error value" and
traceback.

In the second case, you use "manage_addProperty" either for
the wrong object or for an object
that is not a "PropertyManager" ("Image" is one!). Zope's acquisition
will then find the nearest "PropertyManager" "above" this object
and uses its "manage_addProperty". This adds the property to
this "PropertyManager".
