Description

I know there are changes to search result summaries coming with #2976, but I'm wondering what I can do now to change the search result summary. Is there a way to override the function that generates or returns these, or some front matter I can use to set a static summary?

Use Cases

The data we have in mkdocs is highly structured, and the summaries are very low quality, with most failing to even show the page title.

Converting to discussion, since this is essentially a question.
