Oh, just as I feared. The problem is the metadata itself is probably
hundreds of gigabytes, if not terabytes in size, so it would be
impossible to have mdimporter index "fake" files.
One thing you could consider is to just create these fake files for
items in the database that the user actually visits. At least that way
they can do a spotlight search for something they remember visiting
before. Similar in style to what happens with web sites you have
visited in Safari. There is an index file for each of the items in
Safari's history.
