The reStructuredText package in Zope is overzealous to impose its settings dict on rendering docutils-restructuredtext.
Attached is a patch that honours all of the settings dict passed in by users.

Instead of copying the settings dict first, it uses it to update a new dict, after adding overridable settings and before adding settings based on the keyword parameters.
