I hope I've understood currectly the request.

With the Extended Directory I've writen
(http://quixote.ca/qx/ExtDirectory) you can do it very
simply:
"
from extdirectory import ExtDirectory
from quixote.publish import Publisher

class Customer(ExtDirectory):
    def _q_lookup(self,id,action='show'):
        return "Customer ID:%s, action:%s" %
(id,action)
class Root(ExtDirectory):
    pass

def publisher():
    root=Root()
    root._q_exports.append('customer')
    root.customer=Customer()
    pub=Publisher(root)
    return pub

if __name__=="__main__":
    from quixote.server.simple_server import run
    run(publisher,host='localhost',port=8080)
"

You can run it, and use your prefered browser with the
following urls:
http://localhost:8080/customer/
http://localhost:8080/customer/10
http://localhost:8080/customer/10/edit
