Is it okay to call a method which > does this from __init__ ?
No, since the acquisition context is only created when the object is insert into the hierarchy somewhere (sloppy terminology here, I know). And that can only happen after the instance has been fully created. As an example: obj = Object() # obj has no acquisition context folder.obj = obj # folder.obj will have an acquisition context In other words: in __init__ and everything you call from __init__ the instance will not have an aq context. The context does not magically appear.
