Maybe we need to add more info about current status in statusbar. Note
that we are currently missing total matches too.

We could show in status bar something like:

        1-->  Results 12 - 23 of 234
        2-->  Results 1 - 3 of 3 (<b>indexing still running</b>)

1 is for searches performed while no indexing action is running (note
it's inspired to Google.Com), 2 for searches performed while indexing.

Of course any common_human-readable phrase to explain that tracker is
collecting data could be better then "indexing".

I agree with Laurent here...

Search-as-you-type is, simply, coooooool - don't care if it's
unuseful :-)
