First off, you can actually define multiple different hierarchies within the
new editor. It allows you to create an unlimited number of root groups. This
gives us much flexibility in how a system can define its' hierarchy for
different features.

I think there are two ways to accomplish this:
1) Add the "show group in search" option I outlined previously
2) Allow the library to create a special root group just for searching. This
group would be stored in a syspref. Each child of the root group would be a
search group to be displayed. The pros of this way would be that we don't need
to alter the database schema to implement it.

What do you all think?

Kyle
