Are you calling:

Globals.default__class_init__(MyBasketClass)

on your Basket class? This is (poorly documented but) 
necessary for permissions declared in __ac_permissions__ 
to be correctly initialized.

Thanks, that's a *lot* more legible (I do feel strongly
about it). What other ways are people asking for?

Yeah, that's pretty slick. It occurs to me that the same
layout should be used for the How-To's page.

Perhaps a 'short_description' property could be added to the
Product, and it would default to 'first line' only if that
property was blank.

You're welcome.
