[Zope-dev] [IDEA] ZopeRoot and SiteRoot

[sean.upton@uniontrib.com]

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...

Hmm... no, I dont think there's a call to get the virtual root.
Although I imagine it would be pretty simple to add.
