Automatic management of mongo indexes

[sebakerckhof]

If all indexes for your mongo database are defined inside your meteor application (using _ensureIndex). It would be useful if Meteor could have an option (e.g. through a setting or envar) to automatically query and diff the indexes at server startup (and thus drop indexes that are no longer defined anywhere). Might be a bit tricky for 'text'-indexes.

You probably want to use percolate:migrations for that behavior.

@doctorpangloss Well, except for a locking mechanism, percolate:migrations doesn't do much, you would still need to record manage all indexes manually. This request is about doing an automatic diff / sync between requested and actual indexes.
