Yes, we need to un-nest this somehow, I just left it here so we would
remember to look into it.

IMO, there are certain types that should be blacklisted from all of
these lists (ChangeSet, Criteria, etc) since they are not actually
addable types, but just side effects of the implementation strategy.
If "friendly types" is related to the search blacklisting at all, I
have misunderstood how this works. I didn't think it did. :)

I'm not sure I'd want to make this part of 3.0; such refactoring at
this stage could be risky and boring. :)

Let's take a pragmatic look at it and work out what's achievable
without introducing new properties and new lists of things.

Right, also an old note that made it in. A global "enable content
rules" checkbox in the Content Rules panel is more than good enough.

Cool. I've got a few contentrules fixups in the pipeline, will look at
them then.

I mean "not something they are likely to need". It's the same. At
least in my brain. ;)

I think you're the only one that understands this code at the moment,
so if you could look into this, it would be appreciated.

It's quite easy, I think. If I forget, remind me again. :)

In the formlib add form world, we actually turn off the border in its
entirety (i.e. disable_border=True in the request) when adding
objects. I think we need to do the same for AT based objects.

In the formlib world, it makes no sense at all to have tabs, because
before the object is added, there is no object to have tabs for! The
tabs that appear would be those for the parent folder, which makes no
sense.

At least when using portal factory, we are trying to fake add forms,
so I think the semantics should be the same. To the user, there is no
object until the "add form" is submitted. ;)

Just the wording for the message that needs to show up if you are
trying to set Sharing privileges for the default view of a folder. It
doesn't exist at the moment (the entire Sharing page seems broken for
some reason at the moment, I get a KSS spinner, but nothing happens).

Gah. :)
