yeah, I had to go back to the July archives to find it again. :^) I was
getting concerned I hallucinated the whole thing. Then I recovered my
senses enough to remember evolution can search my archives :)

According to the docs, btw, ZCatalog is just a Zope wrapper around
Catalog (to make it usable in ZClasses, IIRC), which, IIRC, was always
intended to be used outside of Zope.

Now I guess I need to figure out if I want to just use Catalog, or if
ZCatalog actually gains me anything. Ah the joys of exploration. :^)
