No. Actually, the '_v_name' behavior that exists outside of a
__bobo_traverse__ call is what I want.  I can handle values being
occasionally flushed, but the overhead for them being flushed
virtually every time is a bit excessive.

See my example Test product posting in Zope.misc to see the behavior
that I'm talking about. Then substitute the __getitem__ call in
place of the __bobo_traverse__ and see the desired behavior wrt
_v_name values.

I need the __bobo_traverse__, but I also need the normal _v_name
value behavior when called by the __bobo_traverse__. How do I get
it?

Thanks
