We have had this discussion multiple times. It comes up periodically.

Calibre is much, *much* better indexing and searching tool than the vast majority of indexing tools / search engines. You can even connect to Calibre running on the server via browser or Calibre Companion and search your files perfectly indexed by Calibre.

Exporting is a very useful option. You can set up elaborate schemes for naming of files, folders and folder structure. You can use any metadata and create your own structure with books for loading to your devices (that support browsing file structure)

Do not hold your breath. Kovid Goyal - the principal developer of Calibre - explained multiple times why this is *not* going to happen.
