[Zope-dev] Overriding traversal

[Andy]

Actually just notice VirtualHostMonster does the same thing our quick hack
does:

        if name in ('manage_main', 'manage_workspace'):
            return self.manage_main

Hmm. I guess using before_ or after_traversve hooks would be better than
overriding traverse.
