In general anything in Zope could be an objectmanager.

In fact ObjectManager is the general object used to hold other objects. 
A Folder is a specialized ObjectManager that also is a PropertyManager 
and a few other things thrown into the mix.

There is no reason why you should note make ie. an article an 
ObjectManager that contains pictures.

All that it takes for a class to be an ObjectManager is to subclass the 
ObjectManager class.
