<http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:%24wgAPIModules>: "Extension

understand extension modules can override special pages, so why not
api modules? It would be particularly useful for extension
LuceneSearch. This extension overrides Special:Search and its (not yet
committed) api module should also override list=search.
At least in the case of search, wouldn't it be better to modify the
core module to be able to query different backends?
