I think the useability of DSR depends on your search intention/procedure.
In my case, when I'm
knowledge searching in books (and other files containing text for that matter, even files outside calibre) which might contain some specific text phrase, I now use docfetcher, and have no need to fire-up calibre as I can see a rough text representation in docfetcher and when needed I can read the material by a double click in the docfetcher found files section.
When I need to
technically search inside books within calibre for any ebook markup phrase or normal text, I fire-up calibre and use the Quality Check plug-in which has a great search facility for this: you can define the file types to use. Any search results are marked automagically in calibre. It takes only some search processing time but it works well enough.
IMHO the ideal situation would be to incorporate the strong function parts of QC and docfetcher within calibre and you have a winner.
