That is a GREAT idea! The biggest factor contributing to any undesirable results with our current search (I've tweaked it as best as I can and as time will allow) is that I can't give weight to sections like you said. I have the site meticulously divided into directories and subdirectories, keeping the content well organized. But I sure would like our main content to get precedence over our old news and over our photo galleries. I haven't found an effective way to do this, even with the title and META factors, things which I have also meticulously syntaxed :\

How about a url_factor or inurl_factor config
attribute which would be similar to the other
*_factor's.
inurl_factor would take a string list of pairs
containing a URL pattern and a weight multiplier
if a result url matches the url pattern, multiplier is
applied.
This would be useful for increasing the ranking of
certain "sections" of a site.
Example situation:
site.com/news is more important than site.com/forums
