AW: [Zope-dev] Proposal: add form support tozope.session.http.CookieClientIdManager

2008-07-10 Thread Roger Ineichen
Hi Jim

 Betreff: [Zope-dev] Proposal: add form support 
 tozope.session.http.CookieClientIdManager
 
 
 As it's name implies, the CookieClientIdManager manages HTTP 
 client ids using HTTP cookies. Recently, I've found it to be 
 useful to be able to get a client id via form data.  The 
 reason is that flash programs don't send browser cookies.  
 This bit me when trying to use the YUI uploader, 
 http://developer.yahoo.com/yui/uploader/, which uses a flash 
 program to select and upload files.  I'm using session 
 authentication and the only way I found to make it possible 
 to upload files to protected pages was to pass the client id 
 as form data.  I have a custom client id manager that gets 
 the id from form data as well as from a cookie.  I propose to 
 merge this with CookieClientIdManager.
 
 Any objections?

Does this bring in new dependencies to zope.session?
if not moreDependencies:
+1
else:
-1

btw, I hope it will be still possible to remove the 
zope.app.appsetup somedays from the zope.session package.

Regards
Roger Ineichen
