We have a custom indexer. There are many database fields. We assemble the 
content from them. Part of the content contains information that should be 
searchable but it does not make sense when it is displayed in the excerpt. 
We need to hide it (customer's wish) but it should still be indexed.

May be, we could use an additional dynamic field for the "hidden" data? I 
believe the excerpt is created from the content field only. Is this correct?

But we still need a proper excerpt.
