accidentally sent the mail to zope-common at p.d.o and it went into the
moderators queue on the zope list, so I'm forwarding it FYI.

As I've allready mentioned in a different mail, we're still working on
zop-ecommon and chances that templates are going to change are really
good. The new zope-common is in testing as it fixes some security
related issues (and a few others), but we're still not done with the
needed changes. But here're my comments on the suggested changes. All
parts I've removed from your mail are good imho.

I think this part will be changed anyway, as we need to check for far
more than only an existing or not existing Data.fs.

a valid username has to start with a letter, not sure how to describe it
in a better way.
