I've done that locally (changing __init__ and the the py but had no 
chance to make it work with __existing__ ZClasses. 
Something was coded inside the zclass instance ;-<

So i had to patch ZCatalog for getting the right behaviour for my 
existing products.

So, even if ZClasses are not cooked completely, they allow guys 
like me to use zope, to promote zopet even if we are useless at 
good python programming ;-), and until Z3 exists.

All my support for ZCatalogPathAware in 2.6.

Maybe we should investigate :

 - how updating old CatalogAware ZClasses for taking care of that

 - what impact for already updated construtor scripts ? (shuild be 
none, but not sure)
