New local command suggestion: add/set default view

[Mikko Ohtamaa]

Hi,

A very common use pattern is to set a default view for a custom
created content. It's not especially straightforward task as you need
to 1) create the view, register it against a content interface, in my
case this goes to views.py 2) poke types.xml in two places 3)
reinstall add-on

Would it make sense to create a zopskel.dexterity command doing this
for (excluding reinstall, of course, but would give a message about
it)

... or does Dexterity hold another pattern to solve this?

This might have bounced earlier.. resending.

Mailman, I hate you.
