[Zope] ZCatalog - perfoming an or operation on different columns

[Casey Duncan]

If you install my CatalogQuery product you can write:

Catalog.query('meta_type==['DTML Method','ZCatalog'] or title==``song``')

It will not return any dupes.

Also, this:

<dtml-var "Catalog.getpath(data_record_id_)">

Can be replaced by:

<dtml-var getURL>
