Someone implemented an "urlparam_expr" extension
and donated it to Zope by putting it into the old collector.
But the old collector broke and its content was lost...

Maybe, a mail archive search can still locate the extension for
you.

If not, it is not difficult to create the extension again (you
would follow the example of the other "*_expr" implementations).
Maybe, this time, such an extension could be successfully integrated into
Zope?
