When trying to determine a plug point for some functionality we were

XMLRPCRequest). This smells like an oversight/bug. I'd like to fix
this for 3.1.
Shrug, this is a risky change. If something goes wrong there, a lot
of code
will be screwed. I agree it is fairly trivial to fix, but I would
prefer it
to be done right. I plan to address the entire HTTPRequest/
Publication/...
issue with the Twisted integration work.
Shrug. :-) OK. I hope the Request is pluggable then, and that it
still uses (a descendent of) the current Zope 3 request object.
For a specific application it would be as easy to write your custom
HTTPPublicationRequestFactory.
Right, but currently that means you have to define your own server--
and instantiate it in zope.conf rather than the standard HTTP server
in order for it to be hooked in. That's relatively easy, but *way*
heavier feeling than I wanted. I wanted to add some functionality to
the request, not declare a new server type. :-/
