It looks like an specific hackfest would be good for this subject!

and there is Martin Dobias' Postgis-manager plugin - which is quite close
to a catalogue browser in my opinion, but specialized for Postgis. It
would have to add the search issues and support for other data formats.

I also think that many components for a catalogue browser and viewer are
already existing. At least 4-5 existing plugins do something along the
lines, partially overlapping: the plugins listed below plus the Postgis
manager plugin. One would have to join efforts of the various plugin
authors to create something more generally usable and compatible.

-  use the overview map widget to view the data (vector and raster)
-  evis plugin for other data such as geocoded photos, non-geocoded
paper maps, poster maps, etc.
-  metadata plugin for metadata viewing or a new widget to design the
graphical forms from a shapefile index attribute table
