Have you tried this?

• https://pypi.python.org/pypi/collective.dexteritytextindexer

For best results I think you shold read the section "Registering a custom field converter".

In addition you may find interesting reading this similar SO question:

• Extending SearchableText using collective.dexteritytextindexer

It's really well written and contains link to code examples in github.
