1301 of the file system backend.
1302 + The index is now semi-transactional; we can make now make some
1303 guarantees about the index and the beagle-specific filesystem
1304 metadata not getting dangerously out-of-sync in the event of a
1306 + It is now possible to efficiently modify certain index properties.
1307 + Hits now are returned in time-order, not score-order. Scores
1308 are still available, though will not agree with the old scores

1311 semantics are much more sane.
1312 + We are much more intelligent about when we optimize the Lucene indexes.
