I think this is _exactly_ what I've been looking for for ages, especially, I'm guessing, that if you don't specify 'used' then:
No, 'used' has *no* effect on the processing of the search; it exists only to allow keeping track of the indices used in searches across catalogs.
Okay while I'm here, one final one.
We have the sort_on and sort_order parameters, they'll return stuff ordered like:
Aardvark Badger anteater bird
Whereas most humans would think the following would be more readable:
Aardvark anteater Badger bird
Chris, this necrohippophilic sadism has to stop! "most humeans" does *not* map to "English speakers who prefer case-insensitive collation." Case-flattening is a lossy operation; there is *no way* you are going to get it by default. If you want the catalog to do a case-insensitive search / sort, then create a method on your object which does the approprate case-flattening, and index that instead of the "real" attribute.
