This looks interesting, I always wondered whether things such as gamin 
and libgtop should be implemented using dtrace libraries.  But I hope we 
don't end up with multiple indexers.  Am I correct in assuming that all 
three of these index/search utilities provide the same functionality? 

tracker: Native C/Python/Gtk?
dsearch:Java
beagle: C#

It's great for the opensolaris community to know about such 
possibilities, but I sure hope opensolaris distributions will pick the 
best of breed and not try to throw in everyone's favorite project, 
especially for things which consume resources.
