CatalogAware defines it, but unfortunately without stripping tags. You might check out my DTMLDocumentExt code which renders the document and strips the html tags. It is an extension of some code Dieter posted online a while back.

The PathIndex works a bit different from the other indexes because it does not look for an attribute or method with a name equal to the name of your PathIndex. So how do PathIndexes work ? - ZCatalog calls PathIndex.index_object() for all objects to be cataloged. - index_object() determines the physical path the object and indexes this result inside the PathIndex data structure. We have not seen necessity to provide support for a user-defined hook. If you have some use cases let me know.
