I don't actually use the 'Destination' bit, ever (in fact, I don't
remember ever even seeing it used).  By inspection (in
'App.FacdtoryDispatcher'), it looks as though the metho returns an
unwrapped object, which would be a Bad Thing.

Can you modify the factory to just call '._setObject' on the dispatcher?
Also, I would probably just import the Photo class directly, rather than
setting up another dispatcher layer.  E.g., ::

 def manage_addSomething(dispatcher, id, title, photofile):
     from Products.whatever.photo import Photo
     instance = Something(id, title)
     dispatcher._setObject(id, instance)
     obj = dispatcher._getOb(id)

     photo = Photo(id='photo', title='', file=photofile)
     ob._setObject('photo', photo)
