This bug is going to have to wait for one of two events: inclusion of bug 1698206 (Eliminate Staged Search); or the decision to not include it. There's just too much overlap and if ESS gets in it will need a significant overhaul. Which, I'll commit to doing, if ESS goes in. But that very likely won't happen before 3.0. I'll leave this assigned to myself to signify that.
