[Zope] Advanced search in ZCatalog

[Andy McKay]

PrincipiaSearchSource is a method that returns the (for example) text of you
object. If you have a class that is being catalogued, as it catalogs it
calls each index (be it a method or a property). So you can fiddle with your
indexes by fiddling with your methods, such as PrincipiaSearchSource.
