Hi, James. Thanks for working on this feature. I don't have time to review this at the moment, but I just wanted to mention that the idea behind this feature has come up in the past as a way to significantly increase usability and performance of the VIM interface. Since VIM does not support asynchronous file loading, this feature could be used to efficiently process large search results by only loading one page of results at a time. I highly recommend that the VIM interface developers take this and run with it. I'm sure this could be used to actually get the VIM interface over the hump to being fully functional. jamie.
