If you always want to link to a page of the site, then get the current site
and construct a url relative to the site's url. Perhaps we'll want
apis to make this easier. <shrug/>  For now, on the trunk, you can
use zope.app.zapi.getSite() to get the site. (On the branch, you hace
to use zope.app.component.hooks.getSite().)
