You need to do two things:

1. You need to tell Zope that your container implementation wants to 
choose its own names. You do that by marking it with the 
IContainerNamesContainer marker interface.

2. You need to write an INameChooser adapter for that container 
implementation that chooses and checks names according to some rules 
that you implement in that adapter.

This should be documented somewhere in Stephan's book.
