This should be "allow_type(set)".

Allowing a type does not automatically mean that it gets available
in the builtin namespace for untrusted code.

I would do the following:

   Define a module, say "importable", which imports all 
   objects you want to make available to untrusted code.

   Declare this module importable via "allow_module(importable)".

   Provide (e.g. in the module) all "allow_type" you want.

   Import your resources in your untrusted code.

An example of this approach is "Products.PythonScripts.standard").
