The note on the TODO list is definitely wrong, and I'll correct it.
Thanks for the heads-up.
The bug tracking system does indeed have a category for feature requests
(which I'll mention when I fix the page), so either it or the htdig-dev
list are usually the best places for feature requests.

It seems that something like...
noindex_start: <frame
noindex_end: >
should do what you're asking, as long as you're not already using these
attributes for something else. A pending feature request is to expand
these attributes to use string lists, so you can have multiple sets of
strings to remove. If this doesn't work, let us know.

We're currently discussing various ways to make the documentation more
newbie-friendly, so any contributed tips and tricks would be most
welcome. We could really use a write-up on setting up multiple databases
for a virtual hosting environment, as we've had a few requests for this.
We could also use more search configuration examples, especially for
radical customization (but still sticking to the standard htsearch CGI).

I don't doubt that. It tends to be true in general of most software
packages. However, some documentation improvements would likely help
users find out more about what they can do. Of course, it'll only help
if users actually read it. I've found that almost half the questions
on this list are already answered, fairly directly, in the FAQ or in
the documentation. What is not clear is whether those asking the
questions have spent any time at all looking for answers before asking.
In some cases it's quite obvious, but I suspect that in others they've
taken a look but had trouble finding what they're looking for.
