Good to know that your devised commercial feature is already offered by Enhydra Snapper as an open-source feature. Check here: http://www.enhydra.org/apps/snapper/index.html

Yes I do have plans for adding fast save support and support for more file formats. The time frame for this happening is the next couple of months. I'm playing with the idea of offering a commercial version. I want to continue to support the open source community so I want to keep it open source or free and add value that people would be willing to pay for. Any comments on this are appreciated. One thing I thought of would be to continue to offer the text extraction as open source but add html conversion with hit highlighting for a variety of file formats as a commercial add on. Is this something anyone would pay for? What are some other pain points of the Lucene community besides text extraction?
