I perhaps should have clarified that I need to be able to specify the
name of the attributes or methods at run time, so ComputedAttribute
unfortunately won't do the trick as you have to define each
attribute/method you require in the class definition.

ie. I need something like :
def __getattr__(self,attr):
   if name in self.methodlist:
     <do something>
   return Implicit.__class__.__getattr__(self,attr)

where self.methodlist is a list of strings that may change per instance
and/or at runtime, or itself could be calculated at the time of doing
the __getattr__ (eg self.getMethodList()).

One other way that may work is to be able to set methods on the object
as it comes out of the ZODB for use, as I need to be able to get methods
from other objects in the ZODB, something to explore... Anyone have any
pointers on this one perhaps?

Thanks,

JB.
