[Zope] Indexing: ZopeSplitter and numbers

[Andreas Jung]

Zope 2.4.X allows to have multiple splitters. So you can write your own
splitter.
The only disadvantage is that there is currently no offical API (except
monkeypatching)
to add custom splitters (but there is a already a proposal in the fishbowl
to address
this problem).
