For what you want to do, you dont need to implement a custom backend - a custom search interceptor is the way to do. Its quiet each to implement, just implement the interceptor interface, overwrite the search method and - this is the research part you have to do on your own, figure out how to return the correct values (i.e. howto create a serversearchentry etc)
