I guess you cannot clone a PassDirectory, since it requires manual
config (it requires a user to enter the directory to be
served). That's why automatic cloning of a PassDirectory is not
supported (even though the code might let you think it is - another
bug to fix).

My idea was to have the "child-template" attribute be a
StringAttribute giving the name, within the directory of the resource
that is to be used as the template.
This would allow you to edit/create the template by just using the
normal form interface (since the template would just be a normal child
resource)

Does this solve the problem ? BTW I am looking at some way to merge
into a single class PutableDirectory/Directory and PassDirectory
functionalities...
