Yes, in http://cmf.zope.org/download/CMF-1.3beta2/CHANGES.txt :

  Fixed the TypesTool so that TypeInformation's Title is decorrelated
  from its Id (the old TypeInformation.Type() should not be used
  anymore). The Id is what gets put in the "portal_type" attribute of a
  content object, which one gets at using
  somecontent.getPortalTypeName(). The Title is returned by
  somecontent.Type(). "portal_type" is now indexed, and in most cases
  should be used when doing catalog queries instead of "Type".
