It's beautiful. Some remarks:

* The docs mention the ZCatalog having an entry in the public CVS. When 
will this be realized?

* Right now, search results on multiple indexes are intersected; if you 
have a search term on the title and the body of a news item, only objects 
that have hits on both indexes are shown. This makes it practically 
impossible to present one search field that will present the user with 
objects that have the search term in one of the indexes. I would like to be 
able to concatenate the results from different indexes. intSet supports 
this operation (union).

* catalogView.dtml still contains (albeit commented out) debugging code =)
