CSW harvesting is also implemented via extension since some time in CKAN. What is not implemented is the CSW Transactional stuff, input of ISO19115/19119 via CKAN (API), and not via CSW harvesting won't be exposed via CSW endpoint from CKAN. Basic location search (BBox) is implemented via solr in CKAN.
