[Zope-dev] Proposed new URL rules for explicit namespace control in Zope

We are proposing to introduce some new syntax in Zope URLs
to provide explicit namespace control, including:

 - Avoiding name conflicts between folder content ids and
   folder presentation names, and

 - Suppoting explicit rather than implicit acquisition.

The issues are, IMO, surprisingly subtle and complicated.
The issues are described at some length at:

If you would like to wade in, comments (especially Wiki comments :) 
are welcome.
