Peter would have to grant you rights to his repo and I bet he will have some ideas of his own to add to my suggestions. You would need to flesh out what parts of neo4j-spatial are actually generic Rtree classes (making sure there are no dependencies to geotools). It would be nice if the Rtree classes ending up in neo4j-collections would really be a multi-dimensional index component that is independent of its usage as an index for geographical information, so it can be used for other multi-dimensional search actions that are not necessarily geographical in nature. Together with the people responsible for the Lucene index component we have to find a common way to access the Rtree and the Btree index, so it can all eventually become part of the indexing framework, but i'd consider that step 2.
