Yeah, I was thinking of Mnogosearch where a server can include
subsections so you can do things like:
ServerWeight 100
Server http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.1/
ServerWeight 50
Server http://www.postgresql.org/docs/7.4/
I did get shot down as well though - iirc it was Oleg who was
essentially saying that the search engine should not have any knowledge
of the site beyond what it crawled.
