[zope2-tracker] [Bug 1007523] [NEW] zope2.Public from AccessControl isn't Public if used with grok.require

[Patrick Gerken]

Public bug reported:

Steps to reproduce:

1. Take any plone Project that has views defined with grok.
2. Change a require directive to "zope2.Public"
3. Try to access the view as a nonmanager
4. Confirm that you get an exception

There is a method checkPermission somewhere that handles the zope2.Public permission. But its never called.
The traverser instead just asks the Object and all it's parent which role has the required permission.

I can solve the issue by adding redefining the Public permission in
AccessControl:AccessControl/permissions.zcml to include the role
Anonymous.

But I am not sure whether this is the right way of fixing it. Therefor
I'll create a branch and link it here afterwards
