Re: LCUP: updating cookie when no entries are to be sent

Isn't that what the stateUpdate boolean is used for? Maybe the draft
should instruct the client to not assume that the search result entry
represents a change of any kind

I believe LCUP needs to provide a mechanism which
allows the server to send, at any time, a new cookie
to the client without requiring the server to send an
entry.  This is useful in cases where the cookie
the server previously sent is no quite old and
a new cookie would allow more efficient resync
if the session where to be unexpectedly dropped.
In fact, the cookie may be so old to cause a
full sync to occur when no changes would be
necessary if the cookie were updated.
