I usually do not use the Zope 3 root as the root of my application, since I 
want to (1) have multiple applications per Zope 3 instance/DB, and (2) have a 
custom site object.

Your case is the latter. I would really like to tell you that it is possible 
to register an adapter for the root folder factory, but this is not the case. 
See zope.app.appset.bootstrap, line 182.

Thus the only solution is to not use the root folder as the root of your 
application, but create a sub-site. Then use Apache to hide the unwanted path 
details. Note that you usually write customs skins anyways, which warrants an 
Apache rewrite rule.

Stephan
