Opensearch is a bit silent, but not defunct, there is a low activity

My impression is there is not much more Opensearch can be developed into,
as a "de facto" very lightweight standard.

Example

http://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/search/pages/results/?proxtext=ducks&format=json

That is a special endpoint search that understands a simplified query
parameter. The query parameter can be anything, for example an SQL-like
syntax like xin zhang suggested.

The effect would be the integration of ES into 3rd party products that
offer simplified search.

Opensearch is known from browser search forms like Firefox search plugins.
This would of course not replace ES official clients, but some PoCs were
easier ("let's get some ES results in our product and show it in the
browser").

OpenSearch Geo

All in all, what the plugin would have to do is a bit of processing
simplified queries and reformatting ES JSON result, preferably as Atom
feeds, both XML and JSON. So a reverse HTTP proxy could just pass
parameters and results.
