First, I hope your parent is a 'Large' folder (BTree
based).
Second, 'folder_listing', 'folder_contents' etc are
so-called
skin methods which can easily be overriden on instance base
by generating a page template or python script of exactly
that
name in that very folder in ZMI to do whatever you want
(e.g., display a custom search form).
Due to the way Zope does its look-up these will be found
first
- but note that this also affects the folder's children
