That's true if you're using one index for every filesystem, and I suggested to have \
one index per filesystem, so (1) could be satisfied ;)

As for (2), I thought it would be easy to get the file path from the inode number but \
it seems it isn't at all. My lack of knowledge.

Oh, by the way, I was still trying to figure out how things would work (Xapian + \
SQLite, etc.) and discovered Recoll (http://www.recoll.org/) which seemes pretty \
similar to what you are trying to do with Baloo. There is a english description here \
: http://www.lesbonscomptes.com/recoll/usermanual/RCL.INTRODUCTION.RECOLL.html - \
Maybe it could be smart to get in touch with the dev ?
