Not having followed closely recently, but: zope.app.generations is
usually the right thing to do. I haven't seen an argument why you need
to reinstall an application when adding indexes. That's a basic use case
that has been supported for years by the underlying infrastructure.

The only thing you might need to do is find the right API buttons to push.
