And what of the object do you want to catalog?
Which kind of indexes do you want it to support?
What kind of questions do you expect your ZCatalog
(hypothetically) answered? Could you give examples?

Yes, search for what and by whom is the question here.

So why are you trying to make standard zope objects more
complicated? :)

This would not be supported by just adding indexing to the standard
objects anyway. You would write a container which supports the bahavior
you want - and while you are at it you can easily add catalogawareness
to that - exactly where and in the way _you_ need it :-)
Individual objects cataloguing themself would get in your way.
