GuiProtocol polling; Enable DefinedSearch + SearchResult

Aloha,

I am developer and the maintainer of KMLDonkey. Just recently I finished 
the port to QML and published a version for the N9 (MeeGo) which should 
appear within next days at the Nokia-store.

Currently KMLDonkey does not use polling but as you can imagine polling 
enables a whole new world of possible optimizations to get down the 
traffic. That is especially useful when KMLDonkey is run at a mobile 
like the N9 and connects with MLNet/MLDonkey over the internet (traffic 
can be expensive and slow). Using polling I was able to add 
optimizations lilke only updating the downloading/downloaded files if 
the list that is displaying them is visible and other things.

But there is one show-stopper which prevents me from enabling that 
feature. When polling is enabled it's not possible any longer to receive 
http://mldonkey.sourceforge.net/GuiDefineSearches and 
http://mldonkey.sourceforge.net/GuiResultInfo from MLNet/MLDonkey. I can 
work around missing GuiDefineSearches by just adding some pre-defined 
search-query-definitions to the client-lib but I cannot work around 
missing ResultInfo's. Without them the user would not be able any longer 
to start new searches and view the search-results or view the 
search-results of remembered searches :-/

Are you maybe aware of a way to work around that ResultInfo-problem? Is 
it maybe possible to add a new ToCore-message to fetch the ResultInfo's 
for a search?

Thanks in advance for any answer :)

best regards
Sebastian
