Without patching ZCatalog, you mean? Hmm.  Possibly.  If ZD* were patched to
use a subclass of ZCatalog which overrode resolve_url, that would work.
Here's the replacement resolve_url for ZCatalog:

    def resolve_url(self, path, REQUEST):
        """
        Attempt to resolve a url into an object in the Zope
        namespace. The url may be absolute (site-relative) or a catalog path
        style url. If no object is found, None is returned.
        No exceptions are raised.
        """
        pparts = filter(None, string.split(path, '/'))
        try:
            obj = getattr(self.aq_parent, pparts.pop(0))
            while pparts:
                obj = obj[pparts.pop(0)]
            return obj
        except:
            return
