Wouldn't it be possible to do text extraction of the article's text
(it is possible for word, pdf and ps) and allow full text** search
capabilities, through something like MNGOsearch (inverse word indexing) ?

The answer I know, is that it is.. but, have you considered it ?
Does NEC citeseer, www.researchindex.com do it ?
This way, metadata would be secondary...

** possibly limited to year ranges, or subject...
