We can fix the error quite easily, but resolving this issue requires some thinking through. Discussion started at fle3-dev.

What exactly does "fle account" comprise of? While seemingly a very nice, polished product overall, it is true the FLE user management is a bit annoyingly single-minded currently :-) It seems one cannot even copy/paste fle users using ZMI, use outside ("above FLE folder") auth etc.

How about delegating authentication to whatever auth mechanism is used "above" FLE and just creating user webtops for authenticated users as they come in first time?

(BTW, I have been using Extensible User Folder and it works ok at least for me. The nice thing is you can very simply add per-user properties, plug in various forms of external auth etc. Other alternatives do exist of course as well.)

When a valid Zope user tries to enter Fle3, but he doesn't have a valid Fle account, he gets an error message (naturally, since he doesn't have a webtop, where he's being redirected).

Something should be done - either a clean error message or then the creation of a user account. This will become a major issue when external LDAP authentication is used. Ideas?
