...that's MARC multilevel description! (in MARC21 dialect:
http://www.loc.gov/marc/bibliographic/bd76x78x.html)

I propose to evaluate this from the view point of results-list (in the
search interface):
1) Multilevel description, gives separated hits, and then the complete
document has to be reconstructed in the record display
2) Contents-notes description (
http://www.loc.gov/marc/bibliographic/concise/bd505.html): give 1 result per
document (but not precise reference between note-occurrence and image-file)
3) METS_Structure description (with appropriate figures-label, or even text
OCR ...): responds like content-notes, and also with possible reference to
the singular image (...in the perspective of Google-book interface :-).
Obviously also the digital-metadata should be indexed (..like a full-text
indexing? Or some XPath selection?..)... This could be a good starting-point
for choosing the METS elements to be supported by Invenio.

Cheers
Cristian
