Zope 2.6.2 has an essential change with respect to updates
for a ZCatalog's Metadata:

  Metadata is not updated when the "catalog_object" requests to
  update only given indexes.

The CMF uses extensively "catalog_object" with explicit specification
of indexes, e.g. for updates of workflow indexes.
This means, the indexes are updated but the Metadata are not.

Today, I found out, the the "review_state" Metadata field
was out of date due to this change.

Do no longer trust workflow variables in "portal_catalog"s Metadata.!
