All,
To be honest, I have only done a cursory investigation to determine if this has previously been discussed. I asked monks present in the CB and consulted Super Search with a basic query and think this may indeed be new.

When you sumbit a query to Super Search, it appropriately stops searching periodically to prevent too much strain on the servers. When you click "next" to continue searching, the current results are replaced by the results of the next time slice. I think it would be useful to be able to have a complete listing of results. I do not have a preference on the implementation but have a couple of possible ideas.

I freely admit I have no idea how much work is involved, how many more important things are already in the queue, or if I am the only one who thinks this will be useful.

You seldom get what you don't ask for.

Cheers - L~R
