So it sounds like there's no way to search Flow
content through
Special:Search (or any other interface a normal user would have). Is that
right?
Correct, there is currently no UI.
It looks like ApiFlowSearch.php was added in REL1_26 [1] (I don't see it in
REL1_25 [2]). I'll tinker around with a 1.26 setup and see if I can figure
out how to use ApiFlowSearch.php.
Yeah, all of that search-related code happened
around the same time.
Come to think of it, there were related changes in Elastica & CirrusSearch
extensions,
but I think most (or all) of those are in 1.25 already.
