yes, that would be weird, but that's not our situation. what we have
are third party products that overrode the _initIndexes and
_createTextIndexes methods, but which depend on the base class's
__init__ and manage_afterAdd methods, respectively, to trigger them.
GenericSetup obsoletes these calls for CMFPlone's CatalogTool, but
causes breakage in the third party products that depended upon the old
initialization calls.
