Sounds neat! Indexing of uploaded document contents would be very useful 
for some sites, and it would be great to have better real-time index 
update options for those sites with low enough traffic to handle it.

Any interest in helping to roll the new features into the existing 
Lucene search that's already actively maintained for Wikimedia? This 
would maximize availability of new functionality and ensure it's used 
and maintained in the future.
