Hi Ian,

there are mainly two reasons why we cannot use DocumentStore
based indexes for this purpose:

- MongoDB only supports a limited number of indexes (64 per
   collection) and applications usually have a need for more
   indexes.

- Data in Oak is multi-versioned. It must be possible to query
   nodes at a specific revision of the tree.

Lucene indexes are more efficient, but are only updated
asynchronously. Whether this is acceptable usually depends on
application requirements. Experience so far shows, many indexes
can be asynchronous, because there was no hard requirement
for synchronous index updates.

Do the above considerations also apply to the UUID index?
