Suppose we decide to implement built-in support for multi-part messages in mnoGoSearch.



I'm curious about the following:



1. What should be displayed in excerpts in search results?

a. Excerpt only from the "regular" message body part.



b. Excerpts from all message parts indexer was able to parse,

which contain the searched words,

with every excerpt abiding the ExcerptSize setting

individually.



So for example, if a message has 10 attachments,

there will be 11 excerpts (10 attachments + body).



c. Or collect a single excerpt by looping through the body

and all attachments, until the cumulative size of the

excerpt does not rich ExcerptSize.



2. How should "cached copy" look like?



Probably it should include all message parts,

with some separator (e.g. <hr>) between the parts.
