Strigi and Pinot share the same (give or take a few SVN revisions)
parser for the Query Language. Both have a parser for the User
Search Language, but that's not shared right now.

Anyone knows whether there are any plans to add support to Deskbar, or
the new GTK file chooser ?

I might be interested in making use of this in Pinot.

I am only now getting my head around the updates made to the spec
and the documentation you wrote for the Query Language. I notice
that the documentation says that query's attributes are "content"
and "source", whereas the examples and the xsd file in xesam-tools
0.5.0 list "content" and "storedAs". Which is right ?
