I'm setting up a series of sites for different states.  Some content is shared among the different states, other content will exist only in some states, other content will exist for all states. 
 
Ideally, I'd like to have a single folder for all shared content, which would allow us to eliminate dual maintenance.  Each state will have its own domain and I'd like the shared content to appear to be local, and have the option of replacing the shared content with customized content for a state that has it.  Finally, it would be very nice to have search catalogs treat shared data as local.
 
I remember seeing code for inserting a location into the acquisition path.  Would that do the trick?  Would it still work if I had multiple levels in a folder structure?  Alternatively, can I create something like a symbolic link in Zope?
 
Thanks for any suggestions or comments!
