Uh, just from the current usage of Z2 indexing, I think it is not enough
to use a standard method to get the full text indexed content of a
document type. Think one wants to have to different indices, one for
anonymous searches and another for managment, where different versions
of a document or document content parts are indexed. We also put
keywords in such a full index, so we get all relevant documents with one
search.

I will add this, if the searching use cases are online, but wanted to
mention it here.
