[Zope] Products, ZClasses and CatalogAware-ness

Hi,

Could someone clarify the following for me:

I would like to create a Product that instantiates itself with a ZCatalog
and a search interface "built-in". I'd like make all the Product's
ZClasses update the catalog whenever they are changed. 

If I make all the classes catalog-aware and point them to the name of the
"root" ZCatalog, will they (re)index the root catalog or a catalog local
to the class itself? If the latter, can I force [it] to do the former?

Thanks,

+ Product 
  + ZClass 
  + ZClass 
  + ZCatalog 
    - search/index_html		
    - results
  + ...
