You know, my research program is almost entirely along these lines, except that I do OLAP-like stuff and not search.
Note that you rarely talk about this stuff on your blog. You appear to suffer from the same “research idea to blog” transfer problem I have. I have trouble talking about research ideas on my blog. People like Peter Turney do it well…
