I don't know enough about your application to say. If it is a web
application then quite a lot is relevant especially the form and schema
stuff. In general though I would not want to build an application
without a component architecture and that pretty much means I'll use
Zope.

I can see that you are trying hard to find answers so if you don't
please continue sending your questions to the list.

I agree that having a basic ZODB example that doesn't require Zope will
help. So let me know if there are still gaps in your understanding and
if you still need help with the indexing and searching of objects.
