The usecase is that you index RSS-feeds, but your users can search each feed-entry as a single document. Does it makes sense?

But each feed item also contains a link whose content will be indexed and that's generally a superset of the item. So should there be two urls indexed per item? In many cases, the best thing to do is to index only the linked page, not the feed item at all. In some (rare?) cases, there might be items without a link, whose only content is directly in the feed, or where the content in the feed is complementary to that in the linked page. In these cases it might be useful to combine the two (the feed item and the linked content), indexing both. The proposed change might permit that. Is that the case you're concerned about?
