I'm not sure if DXR has anything to offer for non-C/C++ code right now
anyhow, but in my web projects, I found it handy to have something like
MXR around, so I guess they might as well.

- Does "non-C/C++ support in MXR" here mean anything except javascript
for which there is already JSHydra (I don't know precisely the
JSHydra/DXR integration level at this point), and except free text
search, which I believe DXR actually already has ?
At one point, DXR had .idl parsing for interfaces discovery.

I think every Mozilla project that has code of any kind that ought to be searchable should be in MXR, DXR or whatever we use. That includes web projects in Python, PHP, etc.

- Could we try to move the discussion about what DXR should do in the
mozilla.dev.static-analysis group where I think it would be more
appropriate to discuss it at length ?

What has code searching to do with static analysis? I think you are not seeing that static analysis stuff that DXR might be connected with might not always be the primary thing people looking at code indexing are after - or I completely misunderstand what you are saying, which is always a possibility esp. on online communications.
