May I suggest another checkbox to enable indexing on a rendered value?
the combination of these two enhancements would let you create a single
textindex on an acquired method that aggregated several diferent
attributes, for example 'title', 'Content', 'Answer', etc.

by using an acquired, rendered value, you could standardize on a single
index, and just override the method where appropriate in your hierarchy.
