Hmm. this seems like there ought to be a checkbox next to the 'Add Index' form field labeled 'index numbers?'. Or maybe a 'Text and Numbers' index as an additional index type.
I like these ideas :-)
One of the ideas that has been tossed around for almost a year (and Jim and I both liked last we discussed it) was "drop-in" indexes.

If you are interested in a short-term hack, it is possible implement your own type of index and add it to an existing catalog, without having to modify any of the ZCatalog product. Ive used that to implement a variant of KeywordIndex that uses a get_keyword method (rather than getattr) Toby Dickenson tdickenson@geminidataloggers.com
