Do we really want that ?
It doesn't seem like the most simple code base to maintain.
Great point... I think I have some work ahead of me in that respect.

We can't bundle non-opensource things so that would need to be looked
at - but first I would like to understand what are we trying to do
here before we add such a generic search framework just to be able
to search WSDL services ?
The same framework is also used for searching SAP NetWeaver Gateway (OData) servers which
we could also use/write. The framework is extensible to allow searching for virtually
anything, so I think we can reuse this for other things.
