Something similar is being done in SKER4785 where the offset parameter can be configured on a per command basis. The parameter "results-to-return" must also be done like this otherwise we do not know to which command it is applicable to. Where it is defined we know we can use it. I think this can be largely tackled just within AbstractSearchCommand, but SKER2149 really needs to be implemented first as it will completely up heave much of the ground work here, so hold out for now. Expect a specification and design document for SKER2149 soon. (it has become a more and more requested, or blocking, issue recently). > A side note: This would be great with the personalization feature too. Indeed this is planned, and was kept in the forefront of much of the development of the user api and service. The user has a list of properties, simplest approach, and these properties can be used in preference to hard search configurations. In fact these properties can be thought of as permanent url parameters. ~mck -- "Friendship with the upright, with the truthful and with the well informed is beneficial.
