Well, after setting up the "Topics" item (the new name for "smart
folders"), the associated folder does kinda do what you want.

Another "Topics" recipe might show items without regard to their
location, but (perhaps) only selected because of their "type" -- that's
how events and news works, I guess.

For book reviews, (and member contrib, etc), a sensible approach is to
create a custom plone type -- the exact workings of which I'm stumbling
over a little.

But I think the general idea is

- to basically duplicate a standard type with merely a new name, Add a
"Factory-based Type Information" (but I haven't yet made this work)

- to create an item that has a custom creation/edit templates, you have
to do something more -- I think that's where TR was talking about
archetypes. I haven't gotten to that tutorial, yet.
