Edit Collection: Absolute path should not take name of the Plone site in account

Reported by: kleist Owned by:
Priority: major Milestone: 4.x
Component: General Version: 4.2
Keywords: Cc: davilima6

Description

4.2 coredev buildout

One would expect that an absolute path "/folder" would find all objects in that folder. But one has to include the name of the plone site: "/Plone/folder".

This is a local site on my PC, without url rewriting:  http://localhost:8080/Plone.

I haven't yet tried on a site with url rewriting. Maybe VHM related logic solves this issue on a production site?

I'm not happy with this solution since now there is longer a way to get stuff e.g. from a language-independent folder outside the navigation-root.

We have a Site where manuals are shown in collections living 2 navigation-roots above their real position:

Plone
|-- de (navigation-root)
|    |-- public stuff in german
|    |
|    +-- extranet (navigation-root) 
|         +-- collection (showing manuals)
|
|-- en (navigation-root)
|    |-- public stuff in english
|    |
|    +-- extranet (navigation-root) 
|         +-- collection (showing manuals)
|
|-- manuals 
     |-- manual1
     +-- manual2 ... (language-independent)

I think this is a pretty common use-case and should be supported ootb.
