No more than I've said before.  There is no reason why this has to be  
zodb specific.

I guess I have no idea what you are talking about.

I assumed you meant something along the lines of what people expect  
of relational databases.  In the relational world, people define  
tables and indexes in order to be able to do indexed ad-hoc queries.   
Maybe you are talking about something else.
