Hi Joel - are you thinking of keeping the client but swapping out the backend? 
Maybe Solarium is a good thing to integrate to enhanced retrieval, but now 
there's a new kid on the block called Elastica, so maybe encapsulate both APIs 
that so it can be seamlessly swapped out should the time come. IOW I'm thinking 
enhanced retrieval could be configured for either SOLR or ES backends. Of 
course, what makes Enhanced Retrieval nice is that it already has a working 
client, integrated/tested already with SMW. I think for many SMW+ applications, 
the distributed architecture of the ES indexing/storage engine (the real 
difference between the two), matters quite little. Unfortunately the working 
client is not jq based, so you're right that the proitotype.js needs to be 
swapped out to make the extension work on MW 1.18+. Huzzahs to you for your 
work!
Thanks - john

  Thanks for the tip David!  Will be sure to let the engineer who 
reverse-engineered Enhanced Retrieval take a look at it.  It does seem 
ElasticSearch is the way to go, especially now that WMF selected it.


  One other search-related aspect of SMW+ we're looking into is how it did 
autocomplete in the search bar, where it also showed the Category/Class, along 
with the article/instance name.


  I know Yaron is also considering revamping Semantic Drilldown, which is a 
form of faceted search.  Perhaps all these search-related efforts can be 
coordinated?

    hi Joel,

    For your consideration, ElasticSearch also supports geospatial features. It
    will certainly make people's lives easier to support just one indexing 
system.
    I ported a system from Solr to ElasticSearch in less than one day.
