Hi Roger,
I didn't follow this discussion closely but thought this needed a comment.

[snip lots of context...]
Did you recognize that the __init__ are different.
A IContentProvider defines:
def __init__(self, context, request, view)
self.context = context
self.request = request
self.view = view
and a IPagelet defines:
def __init__(self, context, request):
self.context = context
self.request = request
Probably we should describe this in the interface too.
This whould manifest the difference of content provider
which provide content and pagelets whcih defines content
in a better way.
It would make sense to have the 'view' attribute a part of the
IContentProvider interface, and *that* might make them different. The
constructor signature is all about the class instead of the instance
and should therefore *not* be part of the interface.
It is perfectly reasonable to have a number of different
(multi-)adapters with different signatures that adapt to the same
interface.
Hope this makes sense. I'll go back to lurking now.
Regards
Jacob
