Another option would be to add a new content class, ContentFolder, which
mixed in the two items.  It might be a good candidate for the
cataloguing stuff, as well.  I would actually prefer to be able to build
a site entirely without PortalFolder, because I no longer find its
"acquire index_html" behavior useful anywhere.
