[Zope] ZCatalog: finding a match "in" an index

[Florent Guillaume]

When you go to the catalog Indexes, it says right there:

Field Indexes treat the value of an objects attributes atomically, and
can be used, for example, to track only a certain subset of object
values, such as 'meta_type'.

Keyword Indexes index a sequence of objects that act as 'keywords' for
an object. A Keyword Index will return any objects that have one or more
keywords specified in a search query.


So use a keyword index.
