We started using javascript to do this type of work about three years ago, when we ported a Lotus web search solution to SQL.
Domino natively still has a problem with record set type views of data and a lot of work has to be done to make searching large databases using paged record set type views. In SQL based back end, this is a piece of cake!
I hope with the new Hannover buld there might be some nifty features we could use to convince Domino to provide fast and efficient search result sets that are compariable to SQL + server side code based search results.
