I agree with the second comment. It seems to me for this to be useful
it has to demonstrably add functionality to what we already have with
existing search engines. Hence my further suggestions:
-- find some way of eliminating duplicate results indicate how much
-- data has been searched find some way of excluding/including pages
-- in specific languagees
(I tried a search for "enrobe" which happens to be a word in both English
and French)
