Path to a detailed container view

In the news template we build the detail view using the path to the selected container.
This is easy to implement and fine when your container belong to a top-level page, but if your news page is at 5th or 6th level, the patch is atrocely long.

For instance
http://localhost:8080/jahia/Jahia/op/edit/lang/fr/page585.html/template/tpl.newsDetail?queryPath=/content/jahia/ACME/ContentPage_1/ContentPage_13/ContentPage_14/ContentPage_301/ContentPage_585/news/ContentContainer_2849

it should be possible to call the detailed view using the ID or a UUID, and not the complete path.
To investigate ASAP. Both methods must be tested, demonstrated in templates and documented.
