As it stands, though, I think you need to: use getPhysicalPath(), and iterate overs the construction of a temporary path list object, using pop() to remove a folder from the list until using restrictedTraverse() with a conditional test of folder content finds a VHM or similar object that indicates you are in the virtual site root. Not a big deal, but it is around a dozen lines of code in a TTW python script to do this. Either that, or in theory (if using VHM), you could get the namespace of your VHM via acquisition, and just return its aq_parent...

getPhysicalRoot already exists, and returns the top-level app object when called from any Zope object.

You know I had a sneaking suspicion that this existed somewhere, which is why I didn't go ahead and fishify it. Thanks for pointing that out.

Is there a comparable all to get the site root?
