Even more evilly, you can just write a python script named do_my_stuff that does 
stuff but returns None, then add an index to your catalog called do_my_stuff and 
let your objects acquire the do_my_stuff method. That way, every time they are 
recatalogued, your method gets executed.

Works particularly well with CMF sits where catalog updating is done for you.

Evil huh?
