Just to note that I assume you're talking about 
<http://wiki.bestpractical.com/view/PostgreSQLFullText> which isn't
a standard part of RT yet; I wondered for a while after reading your
message whether I'd missed something!

It's a shame that the API for SearchBuilder isn't such that you can
configure to treat certain columns as full-text-searchable ones rather
than have to manually hack it in; makes deployment a little more
fiddly.

But thanks for mentioning it because I didn't realise that this work
had been done and it's something we're interested in!
