Having implemented this code on a few projects I find that the major challenge shifts from the back end to the problem of the front end and how to get end users to articulate the questions Lucene can answer with this. Certainly an interesting challenge but that's another topic...

It should allow us to fully implement things such as XQuery + Full-Text (http://www.w3.org/TR/xquery-full-text/) Additionally it solves a century old problem: how to deal with section/sub-sections in very large documents. Long time ago I was indexing text books (in PDF) and had to break down the book into pages and store the main doc id in a field as pointer to maintain the relation.
