====Rewrite the internal research with Zend_Lucene====

No many words to say, it would be great if some student would like to
do this amazing job: full-text MySQL make the environment spend lots
of resources, quering a lucene index wouldn't.

The idea is to bring the Zend_Lucene engine, put it on Joomla! and
start rewriting an internal research from scratch. 

Things you'll need to focus are:
* an agile strategy to develop this new search engine
* localize entities suitable for the search engine ( articles, contacts, ... )
* add event/triggers for the CRUD of those entities
* index generation/optimization
