Sorry, in my quest to be helpful I forgot to mention one thing: I swapped
out the enable_ptl hook in the demo package's __init__ for:

# enable_ptl()
from quixote.ptl import compile_package
compile_package(__path__)

And reinstalled the Quixote package to include the revised demo sub-package.

sudo python2.6 quixote/server/simple_server.py --factory
quixote.demo.create_publisher

For the quixote.demo package you'll need to run or import the application
package as root at least once, unless you move the demo dir to somewhere
else in your Python path that you or your "web" user can write to.

QP avoids import hooks with a similar approach and in practice I find it
works very well / doesn't get in the way at all.
