IDEA: Text search engine tailored to a specific schema

O.K.  This is just an idea that's been running through my head, 
so I figured someone here may be interested.

Text search engines that I know of are meant to index 
unstructured data or apply a schema to data at runtime.  However, 
since D has the ability to do things at compile time, perhaps it 
would be an ideal solution for situations where a specific schema 
is used and much be searched on.  Instead of generic data 
structures used to represent the data, specialized data 
structures could be created at compile time to allow for better 
indexing and performance.

That's about as far as I got with it.  To me, it seemed 
interesting enough to share.

Enjoy.
