Returns an object and a sequence of names. If the sequence of names is not empty, then a traversal step is made for each name. After the publisher gets to the end of the sequence, it will call browserDefault on the last traversed object. Normal usage is to return self for object and a default view name. The publisher calls this method at the end of each traversal path. If a non-empty sequence of names is returned, the publisher will traverse those names and call browserDefault again at the end. Note that if additional traversal steps are indicated (via a nonempty sequence of names), then the publisher will try to adjust the base href. """
