I'm not sure what behaviour you mean - inside my external method, a
variable named "object" points to a <type 'object'>, and "self" does
not exist unless explicitly passed as an argument. This much I know
for sure, because I checked it. Therefore to gain access to ERP5
objects I have to pass "self", unless there is some other way to do it
of which I do not know.
