[Zope] A pondering...

An acquisition-oriented question.

If I have a top level directory containing HTML stuff and page templates, I
usually like to keep all the images in an Images subdirectory, just for
neatness, like so:
Top-level-folder
   Images

In one site, I want to have a folder per different look-and-feel, thus:
Top-level-folder
   Images
   LookAndFeel1
   LookAndFeel2
...so acquisition helps me by allowing me to override specific files by
putting them in a LookAndFeel folder; lots of default stuff is acquired from
the Top-level-folder.
This of course, includes the Images folder - if I refer to
LookAndFeel1/Images, all works because Images is acquired.

However, the contents of Images aren't overrideable - hence:
if Top-level-folder/Images contains logo.jpg and example.jpg
and I decide to override logo for LookAndFeel1 by creating its own Images
and putting logo.jpg in there, as:
Top-level-folder
  Images
    logo.jpg
    example.jpg
  LookAndFeel1
    Images
      logo.jpg
...then acqusition works fine for references to
/LookAndFeel1/Images/logo.jpg, but reference to
LookAndFeel1/Images/example.jpg fail.  I understand why; acquisition works
by containment, so Images can be acquired because it exists in a container
found on the way up the hierarchy, but once an Images is found, that's yer
lot.

Okay, I understand the behaviour - how would Zope gurus do this differently
to let acquisition work for me?
