Too bad! ;-) Indeed, the idea to index tens of thousands of functions could not be appealing to many of us! Why not to consider to test such ideas at the package level? I mean, building a system that points out the packages of interest (those in CRAN, of course), given a search phrase would be a more resonable work. Then, looking at online help of that particular package would be the small additional effort required by the user. The problem here is with heterogeneous packages (the XXXXmisc, and the like)... And... No I'm not volunteering to build the system either.
