[Zope] Underscoring Inaugural Address

[Dan Pozmanter]

Ugh.  I suppose I could ignore the '_' bit (and override
BaseRequest.traverse), but the problems are: 
1.  Keeping this thing synced with Zope.
2.  Accessing the object being traversed to to ensure it is of the
correct type.

There is no other way to do this?

Is there a way to have a path "pretend" it is different?
Could messing with __browser_default__ yield any useful results?

Objects whose names begin with underscores are not "publishable."
The code is in lib/python/ZPublisher/BaseRequest.py
and there is no easy way to override this behavior.
