I've also wondered how the search engines will react to a Seaside site 
(vs. a normal site)-- although me thinks it shouldn't make any 
difference to the search engines.

I know that my nephew put a bunch of meta-tags in the pages of my wife's 
site.  He said it was for the search engines.  I would think I could 
duplicate the tags within a CSS style sheet and use the CSS stuff from 
Seaside.  So again, I wouldn't think it's a problem.  But, I haven't 
actually done it (yet), so there's a bit of unknown there for me, too.

He also created a 'globalsearchenginesubmission' directory at the site 
root, and put a bunch of things in there.  Again, he said it was for the 
search engines, although I haven't a clue how/why it would work.  But 
none-the-less, if I redo everything via Seaside, there would be no 
'globalsearchenginesubmission' directory, nor any of the pages he put 
there, especially considering I don't even know what they are supposed 
to do.   And as a result, I don't know if or how that would impact what 
he was trying to accomplish when he put it there.

So again, search engine (as well as search engine submission) stuff is a 
bit of an unknown for me.

So to summarize my unknowns: (1) bookmarkable URL's, and (2) search 
engine impacts.
