Possibilities:
1. Standard configuration copied to each publication.
The current situation.

2. Common configuration using publication-relative directories:
The standard configuration is contained in one location.  Each
publication has separate index.  A publication needing custom search
configuration can create its own configuration.  (In 1.3, this will be
overriding the necessary files in a publication Module.  Does 2.x have
similar abilities?)  An advantage is easier maintenance -- changes to
the standard configuration are immediately used by all Publications.

2. Common index for multiple publications.
Configure publications to opt-in.  This should not exclude
publication-specific indexes.  Also allow several multiple publication
indexes to create sets of Publications.  Users or developers may
choose to use the publication-specific or a common index depending on
needs.

Just thoughts to consider,
