On my Site, I always try to obey the rule, that the default view of an object
found via a catalog search is what the user want's to see. For small objects
"without" a real view, I simply define a view which redirects to i.e. the parent's
default view.

Determining, which view, the ITidbit object is used in is very easy. Just make your
ISiteSection objects implement i.e. this interface:

class IGetTidbitView(Interface):
   def getTidbitViewName(tidbid):
      """Returns the name of the view, the given object is used in."""

Use the method in the browser redirect returned by the Tidbit's default view.

Regards,

Frank
