Log Message:
Adjust security rules so that unprotected objects are accessible when the
name being checked is None.  This is because None is only used to verify
that an item retrieved from a container or sequence is accessible.  In the
case where an object has no security rules defined, there is no need to
restrict access in that context, because none of its names are going to
be accessible, anyway.  But, if the object is a primitive value (e.g. a
number or string), we need to be able to retrieve it from the mapping or
sequence.  This change is needed so that (for example) peak.web.templates
can iterate through and display a list of numbers.
