Yes full text search is on the road map. It can't be far away because some of the implementation has already slipped into the current release. See the protected method Query.setFullTextSearch()

Hello,

I am wondering if text search is actually on the official road map and
if so when it will be available. If not, would it make sense to start
a google code project to do our own implementation?  I am thinking of
something simple and light without the need of lots of jar. I think it
is quite some work and it would be worthless if GAE will have this
feature in the near future. Also I guess it can be implemented more
efficiently on google side reusing all the infrastructure that they
have already in place.

Cheers,
Toby

another way is to implement a full-textsearchyourself...
implementing this would work:

http://www.miislita.com/term-vector/term-vector-3.html (use tri-grams
instead of full words as tokens)

i would recommend low-level datastore api for that, also, your index
term entities will blow up beyond 1MB, i built mindash-datastore to
handle that

:) or you can wait for a few months for Google

I am debating if I should use Compass or wait for Google to release
something.

I can wait for 3-4 months as my website is going to take that amount
of time to complete.

I am using compass as well and it works fine. The indexing part is
costly and you might need to do task queue if you reindex large amount
of data. Starting thesearchmanager is slow and it happens a lot due
to the suspend policy.

You can also take a look at this project:http://code.google.com/p/gaelucene/

I hope there will be a native solution by GAE one day (is there an
issue to vote for?)

I think there are a lot of posts here that conclude Compass is not
viable.  Has that changed?

you can try compass to make you project searchable. a simple demo

Interesting to see the existence protected
Query.setFullTextSearch(String)
method when you open the Query class in Eclipse. I suppose it won't be
too
far away.  I can't wait to see if they just give us a
take-it-or-leave-it
solution or also the tools required to roll your own.

Haha, like many of us you probably thought that GOOGLE app engine
would have decenttextsearchcapabilities.

It looks like your doing all you can do by creating the inverse table,
you may just want to star

My case:
I am building a website that has several searchable fields from various entities (example Artist names from artist entity , Album names from album entity). To have an efficientsearchcapability I have defined another Entity - SearchType which carries the Searchable string and the Foreign key to the Entity. Instead of querying all the
Entities one my one - I query SearchType.

My preliminary tests indicate that the query  performance on
SearchType is not great (the names are indexed) . I need google suggest like quick results in a drop down. What is the best way to
design this.

I have considered Memcache , but I dont think I can run queries on Memcache . i.e I am running a startsWith() query on JDO today.

Any best practices .
