I resolved the first part some days ago:

http://svn.zope.org/?view=rev&rev=72782

But I'm not sure if "notify(BeforeTraverseEvent(self, REQUEST))" is in 
the right place. Maye it should just be called by PortalObjectBase, not 
by all DynamicType subclasses.

BTW: While fixing the tests a month ago I made two quick and dirty 
changes, adding some XXX comments:

- in SkinnableObjectManager http://svn.zope.org/?view=rev&rev=72251

- in PropertiesTool http://svn.zope.org/?view=rev&rev=72252

Maybe someone can work on a more sophisticated solution and tests?
