Yes.

The object cannot be completely generic - at the least, it needs
an index_html or __str__ method to publish, and it has to satisfy
security before it can be traversed to.

Parsed XML does this, with a persistent head object, a persistent
single XML object, and transient wrapped node objects that are
created on the fly, and published with full ZMI access.
