Much better is to define a __before_publishing_traverse__ method on your 
object.  Unfortunately, due to a longstanding bug in the hook machinery, 
you will need to write your method like this for the moment:

def __before_publishing_traverse__(self, x, request=None):
     if request is None:
         request = x
     # Use self and request normally from here.

Inside your hook method, you can examine and manipulate the stack of 
un-traversed path names "request['TraversalRequestNameStack']".
