[Zope-CMF] [dev] CatalogTool as utility

[yuppie]

Hi!


Converting the CatalogTool is not so easy because it is just a small 
subclass of ZCatalog. And ZCatalog expects REQUEST in its acquisition 
context.

AFAICS the only place where this causes trouble is the 
AbstractCatalogBrain API. But I might be missing other issues. Maybe 
some people can test CMF trunk with their code? Is there a Plone branch 
that is tested against CMF trunk?

Currently CMF trunk contains some hacks to work around the catalog brain 
issues. But I hope there is a better solution. Maybe the ICatalogBrain 
methods getURL, _unrestrictedGetObject and getObject should have a 
REQUEST argument that is used instead of self.REQUEST?

Any kind of feedback and help is welcome.


Cheers,
