So.. looks like Jelsoft backed down from supporting Sphinx in 4.0. Frankly I'm pretty disappointed, I honestly don't see how in the past how many years now that we've been running Sphinx that they couldn't at least unofficially support it like they do memcache, etc.
For us it means we've got to wait even longer to even begin thinking about upgrading to 4.0 when it comes out, until someone has a Sphinx implementation that a) doesn't cost thousands, and b) is able to replicate stock functionality more closely than the current one does.
