The "Find Objects" tab searches the catalog's parent and its descendents
for objects of the given type(s).  I would leave the permission
unselected to do the search.

Once indexed, you can query the objects in the catalog by calling its
'search' or 'searchResults' methods.  E.g., in a PythonScript:

  catalog = context.my_catalog
  for result in catalog.search():
      print catalog.getPath()
  return printed
