Hi,

I want to remove the dashes from the shortname of the object. In other words
I want to remove all dashes in the id of an object. I have noticed there is
a function in namechooser.py called chooseName which does the following:

name = getUtility(IURLNormalizer).normalize(name)

if I set the variable to:

name = name

It works! And the dashes aren't added. However this approach is modifying
the Plone Core :-(
I want to avoid doing this, I would rather like to override the chooseName
function.

How can I do this from my class(custom content type using Dexterity)

Thank You
