[development] programmatic creation of node

[Victor Kane]

I do this a lot, so I will ad my two cents.

The following line is absolutely essential for "good housekeeping",
especially if you are using cck fields:

$node = node_submit($node);

However, it will NOT work if ... it shouldn't; for example if you omit (as
does the above code) initializing the uid attribute.

So, use this function, and include all the necessary fields to make it work,
it is a good test.

Larry is right, what is needed is a better solution...
