I have one question, however:  we make heavy use of the pre-traversal
hooks to do URL swizzling, in order to abide by ReST architectural
principles.  Will some pre-traversal hooks or equivalent functionality
exist in alpha1?

Hi Craeg.  I'm hoping that this takes off an email from Jim's to-do
list. 
:-)  Jim mentioned today that he had found these hooks useful in his
most recent Zope 3 work.  I believe he said that they are in one of the
branches going now, and that they are implemented by looking for objects
that declare implementations of the given interfaces for the two hooks
(pre- and post-) and then calling those objects with names similar or
identical to the Zope2 hook names.

Jim, is that a "yup" or a "nope"? :-)
