In theory, you can only disable the View permission. The problem looks like 
the generation of breadcrumbs uses Title, and Title is protected with View. 
You can do something like this in breadcrumbs:

        if hasattr(obj, 'Title'):
            title = obj.Title()
        else:
            title = 'XXX'
        result.append( { 'id'      : now[ -1 ]
                       , 'title'   : title
                       , 'url'     : '%s/%s/view' % (portal_url, 
'/'.join(now))
                       }
                    )
