The reason that I don't try and index the entire DB is because of the arbitrary structure to JSON. Indexing a value that isn't a string leads to a whole lot of questions with no good answers. By indexing a view I let people pick exactly which parts of their db they want indexed.
If some can dream up a structured indexing that doesn't suck, I'd be glad to take a look. But after all the playing I've done with it I just don't really see the structured stuff as being useful.
