I'm fine with that too. But this will skip the __conform__
lookup, right?

See: zope/interface/interfaces.py line: 167
--------
class InterfaceBasePy(object):
    """Base class that wants to be replaced with a C base :)
    """

    def __call__(self, obj, alternate=_marker):
        """Adapt an object to the interface
        """
        conform = getattr(obj, '__conform__', None)
        if conform is not None:
            adapter = self._call_conform(conform)
            if adapter is not None:
                return adapter

        adapter = self.__adapt__(obj)

        if adapter is not None:
            return adapter
        elif alternate is not _marker:
            return alternate
        else:
            raise TypeError("Could not adapt", obj, self)
--------


But anyway, also the initial implementation which we
used a long time whould skip such __conform__ call.

In my point of view is the usage of the absoluteURL
method an explicit pypass of the ILocation adaption
and an improved speedup lookup based on the directly
__parent__ attribute access. Probably we should add
a comment about that in the absoluteURL method.
