[Zope] Re: (un)restrictedTraverse bug

Hi

I agree with you : urls shouldn't contain any whitespace , but why Zope
accept for instance 1 whitespace for an object id ??
Or , why accepts whitespaces in objects ids ??

My problem is that I'm writing a python product and at some point, will do
an 'restrictedTraverse(url)' ... So, how do I know, that the people who will
use this product are not using whitespaces in ids ? :)
I solved the problem by using try - except to catch the error, but this is
not what I want ...

Anyway, 10x for your reply
