To do this, you need to patch ZPublisher. Zope does not undersand the extra path elements if you rewrite anywhere into the object space other than the root. This ability is not built into the stock Zope so you don't have a bug, you just need a feature. I'm not sure who the author or the current maintainer of the patch is.

Shall I file a feature request with the collector so that this patch can be folded into future versions of Zope?

If this is not already there as a feature request, I think it would be a good request. One comment about this existing patch: It does not do everything one might want. In *general*, it will remove the unwanted part of the URL. However, functions like absolute_url() do not give the values you would want. (That *may* be the only problem, and maybe a small patch to absolute_url is all that is needed). Either way, a solid way to host multiple sites out of one Zope would be an excellent thing. Kevin
