I'm completely with you James.
Moments ago I wrote this:
http://www.fry-it.com/at/refresh-production-zopes
which I think is a brilliant solution to updating product/live Zope 
instances without downtiming the server and losing SESSION variables for 
users on the site during the restart.

Product refreshing is important for me for my future in Zope land. 
Because I depend on product refreshing so much it means I can't dip into 
Zope 2.9.
Apparently the "bug" is somewhere deep in the ZODB code (thanks Dieter 
Maurer for pointing this out some time ago) and that's a domain I'm very 
very novice in debugging.
