That would imply that someone was still working on QP ;). As far as I know, no
one is actually actively maintaining or enhancing that code.

I have some ideas about how to do that, but I don't have the
time/money/sponsorship/whatever to do it.

The older code is still used in many many cases even when QP is activated, so
deprecating the older code is really not an option at this stage.

As for documentation,
http://evergreen-ils.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=documentation:technical:search_grammar
might give you some guidance, although obviously it won't be the same since
it's implemented differently in Koha. As far as I know, Evergreen doesn't have
a search engine per se. Rather, it uses special tables and full-text indexing
within PostgreSQL, so a lot of things (like facets) are totally irrelevant for
Koha.

But yeah... in the end there's no one who is currently maintaining QP, as far
as I know, so I wouldn't expect too much from it at the moment.
