You just don't like it or do you know a better alternative?
We need a way to make sure that object IDs can't mask browser views and
resources. The current solution in Zope 3 is to reserve names starting
with '+' and '@' for resources and views.
"_" is already disallowed at the beginning of an id.
Could you use it to mark views/ressources?
It's more easy to customize that stuff in Zope 3 than in Zope 2, but I
doubt the default names used in Zope 3 will be changed. And I don't
think it would be a good idea to introduce different naming conventions
in Zope 2.
Compared to Zope 2.8.1 and earlier this is no new restriction.
In order to support WebDAV as widely as possible, I
have removed almost all id restrictions quite some time ago.
I hope that this will happen in the official Zope as well.
The current state of affairs is not really justified.
To reach that goal more fundamental changes are necessary. While the
subject of this thread is more general, I just want to fix a bug. And I
doubt the fix I proposed will make the WebDAV support much worse.
Cheers, Yuppie
