Are there any examples of dblink being used in commercial environments. I am curious to understand how it deals with node failures and etc.

Can't you implement something similar to google by aggregating results for TSearch2 over many machines?

tsearch2 doesn't use any global statistics, so, in principle, you
should be able to run fts on several machines and combine them using
dblink (contrib/dblink).

I'm afraid that fulltext search on multiterabytes set of documents can not be implemented on any RDBMS, at least on single box. Specialized fulltext search engines (with exact matching and time to search about one second) has practical limit near 20 millions of docs, cluster - near 100 millions. Bigger collections require engines like a google.

TIP 9: In versions below 8.0, the planner will ignore your desire to
    choose an index scan if your joining column's datatypes do not
    match
