(The _ prepending is to map model_url()'s query and anchor
arguments to the _query and _anchor that route_url() expects.
Popping query and anchor explicitly, and then re-adding them under
the corrected keys, would be a better solution.)
I suppose one could use a pregenerator__ on the route to mangle route_url's
so that
request.route_url('admin', context, *elements, **kw)
would give the desired URL. Is that a complete bastardization of the
pregenerator paradigm, or is that an acceptable plan?
