I'm setting up my own Findable base class (as discussed in previous
messages) to handle this. It appears that if you change a property that is
specified as meta data in the ZCatalog, you'll need to refresh that entry in
the Catalog, right? Does CatalogAware deal with that at all? Does it offer a
method to update the object? (Does anything happen automatically if the item
is renamed or if properties are changed?)
