Are there plans for fixing this?  We have run into this recently in a  
way that isn't as easy to get around.  While working on the Rosetta  
project they have languages that have 3 letter iso codes associated  
with them.  So the obvious choice for these objects in the system  
would be this code.  Unfortunately "alt" is one of them and this  
causes a similar issue as anytime you are in the container that  
contains the "alt" object all images that are using the OFS.Image.tag 
() method are picking up that first for the alt property.

Seems like a core bug in acquisition that an image object which  
should have an alt attribute on it is picking up via acquisition an  
object from the same container before it gets its own attribute.  So  
my question is should we file a bug with Zope or is there already one  
being tracked that I haven't seen yet?

Thanks,
Calvin
