[Zope-CMF] bug (or feature) with Type() field in catalog for newly created CMF objects

[Joseph Wayne Norton]

Jon -

The following patch in the CMF src code works for me.  Please ignore
the first part (I use this to allow the add function to generate its
own id if id is NULL).  The penalty is that the object is indexed
twice after addition.
