I belive that redirecting is not in the spirit of permalinks.

I've written an 'archive' script, this is how I return the view of the 
object:

   [...]

   o = o = brain.getObject()

   [...]

   type = brain.Type
   method = ttool[type].getActionById('view')

   [...]

   method = getattr(o, method)
   return method()
