I have an interesting problem in the world of Zope 2 and zcml: CMFCore registers an handleDynamicTypeCopiedEvent subscriber which does something that I want to prevent at all costs, so I am trying to make sure it is not subscriber. That appears to be impossible!
I can not unsubscribe it, since the subscriber directive dynamically creates a subscriber factory and registers that, so I have nothing to call unregisterSubscriptionAdapter with. I can not use zc.configuration to prevent the CMFCore zcml from being loaded since I have no control over if its zcml is loaded before mine, and if CMFCore gets to go first the zc.configuration exlusion trick no longer works. This trick also has a downside: you can only exclude whole files, which in this case would mean I would have to re-register half a dozen subscribers by hand and pray that a future CMFCore would not add another one and I'ld miss that. Normally if all else fails you can resort to a monkey patch. Even that does not work here since the original method is wrapped in an adapter factory and then registered with the site manager, and at that point using a monkey patch to replace the original method is no longer useful. I have to admit that I'm baffled.
