List blitz helper methods

[wmoore]

Need to know where blitz wrapper methods do not reflect underlying object methods.

Ignoring all method names that begin with an underscore.

BlitzObjectWrapper?

findChildByName (self, name, description=None)	Not used
getDetails()	gateway mostly. wraps obj.getDetails()
getDate()	mostly used in html templates - returns acquisition or creation date
save()	not used outside of blitz, dbhelpers, gatewaytest
saveAs(details)	only used once in gatewaytest
canWrite()
canOwnerWrite()
canDelete()
isOwned()
isLeaded()
isEditable()
isShared()
isPrivate()
isReadOnly()

countChildren() calls containerService

countChildren_cached()	as above but returns cached result if available
listChildren (self, ns=None, val=None, params=None)	NOT used with any arguments - move to P/D only?
listParents (self, single=True, withlinks=False)	only used by getAncestry() and _move_link(). NOT used by webclient
getAncestry()	only used for simpleMarshall and cache keys.
getParentLinks(self, pids=None)	Used in webclient. D/I & plate only. Overwritten by annotation wrapper (could use conn.getAnnotationLinks)
getChildLinks(self, chids=None)	NOT used
unlinkAnnotations (self, ns)	only used in gatewaytest
removeAnnotations (self, ns)	used for image rendering annotation hack, dbhelpers and gatewaytest only (not in web)
getAnnotation (self, ns=None)	used for experimenter prefs and image rendering options. lots in gatewaytest, NOT in web.
listAnnotations(self, ns=None)	used lots in web
listOrphanedAnnotations(self, eid=None, ns=None, anntype=None)	Only used by web. Maybe rename to listUnlinkedAnnotations() ?
linkAnnotation (self, ann, sameOwner=True)	blitz use for exp prefs and image rendering. Lots in gatewaytest, NOT used in web.
simpleMarshal (self, xtra=None, parents=False)	used by webgateway (and gatewaytest)
getId()
