I want to search the content, keyword searches requires the keywords be in the file metadata - if I'm looking for a person (e.g. Alan Greenspan) it's unlikely to be in a keyword.
What i have works reliably, with no performance penalties, search response times are typically sub one-second, and I can integrate with calibre using DaltonST's DSR plugin. For WS searches I can even save the ms-search file in the calibre library itself and run it again. And I can Preview the results in a human readable format. Hence, I'm loathe to disturb that happy set of circumstances.
Apparently there is a tool that allows one to preview EPUB covers in Windows Explorer, but AFAIK there's nothing to preview the content - weird.
Added: what's needed is an EPUB iFilter/Preview DLL, but none of the outfits who have the skills to write one have an incentive to do so, they'd want to be another brick in their garden wall.
