First version of this is done. Currently configured in initializers/blacklight.rb referencing Request Handlers (:qt) in the :search_fields.
Some questions remain:
* Should we have default :search_fields and :default_qt embedded in the plugin, easily overridable at this configuration point?
* Should display of the :qt select field in the search form be conditional?
* There was a lot of discussion over the architecture of this feature, mainly around whether we reference Request Handlers, or move much of the configuration from the request handlers into the Rails app. See:
