What’s the recommended way to do HTTP redirects on Plone using Python? What hooks are available? Can redirects managed through ZMI? My guess is that there is per site pre-traverse mechanism which allows you to check URL and intercept the request if it looks a redirect is needed.
We have some complex redirecting rules and it does not make sense to put them to Apache/NGINX.
In the end this was the code I needed:

Unfortunately none of existing add-ons allowed to write redirect logic in Python in such simple manner.
