We could set up a sitemap and use on-demand indexing, which can get at least parts of the site indexed faster.  As for the other features... is anyone really going to miss them, since the search results would be actually relevant and comprehensive? ; )

This is a reasonable suggestion.  After all, OSS is all about choice, right?  Thomas, would you be able to work two search boxes into the Bento theme and still make it look good?

Public or not, it is still the best way to get that information out to the people who have an interest and are able to look at it.  It's better to have a few people try it out than none at all.  However, I should have made it more clear that only the Novell employees can see the staging site.
