Hello, 

my company has been using Magnolia CMS for multiple years. Recently we started 
utilizing the content applications framework modeling our data in custom 
applications for each content type. We are looking to model an application for 
structured  questions and answers in a parent child relationship. The treeview 
in a content applicaiton presents nicely a parent and the assigned children 
underneath. However when you search and find a parent, the searchview presents 
only the parent item item found and not the associated children records. 
Looking at the implementation it feel awkward to extend the Lucene search, view 
presenter and content connector to add the associated records in the resulting 
listview.
Furthermore since all components such as the ContentConnector get preconfigured 
in the yaml descriptor of the application,  they are completely stateful in 
terms of the query that has been executed in against the JCR and which 
"rootPath" has been queried. We tried to model the children in a separate 
nodeType so when a query is passed to the children's customized BrowserSubApp 
ideally loads the children of the queried parent. 
  What is Magnolia's support and recommended of implementing a Q and A 
application ( in terms of content app ) ? Is there a module or a SubApp that 
can facilitate searches of parents that return the children as well in the 
resulting view?
