Looks good, but the free version says doesn't come with an API. Only the
'Full Texis' has that, and that's > $700.

This could still work, but would need a html-esqe dump of the database
for indexing, and parsing back output of the search interface in
midgard-lib to have internal searching capabilities. Looks a little
kludgy.

OTOH, the html-esqe dump may be a good idea. Most indexers know how to
grovel filesystems, so I wouldn't need a special indexer for each search
engine. Hmm. Well, I'd still need to interface with the search system
directly. Hmm.
