otoh, `plone.app.imaging` also introduces that adapter, and as it was  
mainly created as a support package for adding "image support" to  
`plone.app.blob` (did you think anyone wanted those configurable image  
scales? :)).  that's because the latter overrides the original adapter  
with an implementation based on zodb blobs.

so i'm gonna argue for it's inclusion into plone 4, thereby bringing  
back the `IPublishTraverse` adapter.  of course, limi simply converted  
that old PSPS ticket (#7822) into a PLIP and i didn't think of adding  
a reference to that dependency, so the fwt will have a point in  
turning this down.  i should mention, though, that not being able to  
rely on `plone.app.imaging` would set back "image support" quite a bit  
and thereby reduce the chances of wrapping up blob support in time.   
also, i think the configurable image scales have been a popular  
request by some (b1 had 500+ downloads in 1.5 month ;)).

anyway, and stopping the shameless advertising here, i think back- 
porting the traversal adapter might make sense, and since both  
`plone.app.imaging` (being a potential candidate needing this) and  
`plone.app.linkintegrity` happen to be packages i'm familiar with, i'd  
volunteer to help fixing the issue.  how's that? :)

cheers,
