That’s all super useful. I’ve updated https://hibernate.atlassian.net/browse/HSEARCH-856 to track the necessary changes. It’s much less painful that I anticipated.

And you already have a hook for a sessionFactoryClosed callback in Integrator#disintegrate.  So you'll need to explain this some more.

It is related to a recent change by Sanne and Hardy to have access to a fully initialized SessionFactory to bootstrap Hibernate Search I think. But they can tell more about this.
