I agree the semantics of inherited indexing is off. I implemented what worked
for me at the time and was an easy extension to what was already there.
However, the issues around class redefinition, database connection state,
schema synchronization, data loss protection, etc make code changes ar

Code assumes that there is only one index it needs to update at time, so it
needs to be revised to handl

Currently, I do something along the lines of the following on the results on
get-instance[s]-by-XXX functions:
(remove-if #'(lambda (x) (not (member ',class-name (mapcar #'class-name
(sb-mop:class-precedence-list x) lst :key #'class-of)
if I want results on the whole inheritance chain, or
