19  * Search results are collected by implementing this interface
20  * and passing it to the search request. If the implementation is
21  * visual, it is recommended that the match is shown as soon
22  * as it is collected (rather than kept in a list and presented
23  * at the end of the search). This interface should be implemented
24  * when you want to support collection of results from a mirror site,
25  * otherwise you can just implement the IUpdateSearchResultsCollector.

29  * from pioneering adopters on the understanding that any code that uses this API will almost certainly be broken
30  * (repeatedly) as the API evolves.
