Thanks Erik! I wasn't able to solve my problem unfortunately. I had a closer look at the mlt component and handler. That does seem like the right place to put it, but I can't find a way to add a custom fl for the mlt docs. It would seem as though the response writers' writeDocList method accepts a "fields" argument which is used for all documents. Is that the case?
I'll continue messing with this - in a less rogue way ;) and if I come up with something useful I'd be glad to contribute it!
