In the simple use-cases I can think of you either display the snippets together with the other properties or you don't display them at all. So if you want to show just a few snippets to begin with, you probably just want to get the properties for those few items also. Or am I wrong? _______________________________________________ xdg mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xdg
