I'd like comments on this proposal if you've got the time:
http://dev.zope.org/Wikis/DevSite/Proposals/DropInIndexes Looks good.
When you are changing the indexing and catalog stuff:
* make the interface "index" public, such that it can be used from outside the ZCatalog
* standardize the result type of index searches such that partial search results can easily be combined
* provide operators "union", "intersection" and "difference" on search results.
What would you gain?
We could leave the rigit search interface of the ZCatalog and provide flexible queries that and/or subqueries against different indexes.
Especially CMFTopic would profit much from this.
