Now my questions: is the outline given above correct? At least w.r.t. the big picute?
in a general sense, i think yes.
If so: Having this in place shouldn't this allow for easy extension to multiple catalogs (like the uid or reference catalogs from AT) by simply registering them as further subscribers to the respective events? How to do that? (RTFM manual pointers welcome; maybe I just need to read Philipp's chapter on sites and local utilies again but as of now I don't see how you get this together with the TTW generation of arbirary many CMF and/or Plone sites in one Zope instance). If this would be all true, is it correct to infer then that this is something Plone shouldn't have to deal with at all (except for configuration)?
i think this is mostly correct. in the CatalogMultiplex scenario, however, you have multiple catalogs, and different content types registered with one or more of them. in this case we'd still need to preserve somewhere this catalog:type registry mapping. also, while it would be possible to have each catalog as an event listener, checking the registry to see if (un)indexing is appropriate, it would be more efficient to have the registry itself being the listener, delegating only to the appropriate catalogs based on the type of object being manipulated.
