You are right: they are not acquisition wrapped.

In Zope3, but (I fear) not in Zope2.

  Zope3 abandons acquistion (or more generally: "context wrapper"s)
  and puts an explicit parent attribute in objects.

If you have control over the objects, you can emulate
Zope3 behaviour in some sense. E.g. you can code
the path in an attribute of the object (be carefull
with copy/move/rename).
