Hi guys,

I know Whit worked on this a while ago, but I'm unsure what state the 
code is in. Basically, I have a use case now where I want to be able to 
supply (most of) the schema to a content object with a (local) utility 
so that third party products can plug in a schema without having to 
re-invent the rest of my infrastructure.

How far away a goal is this? As I recall, Whit made AT always use the 
Schema() method to access the schema, which means that I could override 
that and make it do the utility lookup.

However, I don't understand whether the changes he made were 
fundamental, or basically just bugfixes (isn't Schema() the 
recommended/proper way always anyway?). I need to be able to use this 
with Plone 2.5, and I'm willing to help test and fix this, if I know 
which direction to go in.

Martin
