Not really; the only real interface into the index is to search.  Would
you just want to be able to say "beagle-indexed foo.rpm" and have it try
to find that file in the index?  That should be as simple as turning
"foo.rpm" into "file:///home/joe/mydirectory/foo.rpm" and doing a search
on it.

I haven't had the opportunity to verify the bug, but Beagle *should*
scale to directories that size.  If it doesn't, it is most definitely a
bug.
