lucene has been a pain for us thus far to setup. I'm now wondering if it would be a simpler idea to build an elaborate 'expression based doc filtering' List function that outputs json of documents that match given 'expression' query rule. It's accompanying view will essentially index the entire document. Perhaps, it would even output complex other things in the future - like sum/etc., Yes it is O(N) search with heavy evaluation - but this is OK for now. We can also build a program that would generate a static map function with custom name to do 'saved search'.
