What you want is a catalog in which all of your objects are indexed. 
Zope 2 has such a catalog, Zope X3.1 will introduce such a thing to the 
Zope 3 line. Alternatively, you could try using Zemantic, an alternate 
catalog implementation based on RDF/Semantic Web (http://zemantic.org) 
on X3.0 now.
