At the risk of asking a stupid question: what is the

capable of doing commits. Is there any interest/motivation in making it
happen? I think a lucene index is the way to go - if someone coded an
interface, could someone capable of doing it (Tim?) set up the index?
I'm capable of doing commits, but not setting anything up on the site.
For my part, adding category intersection functionality for core is
probably the next significant thing I'd do, given some time to spend
on development work (which may or may not be available soon). I would
add it using MySQL fulltext in core (and PostgreSQL support also
belongs in core, if someone wants to write that), but with a pluggable
backend. But someone could easily preempt me, since I have no
timetable for this.
