For a serch gui its essential to page results using an offset and limit
to define the page size
currently xesam api lacks the offset component (although it has a limit)
there are several workarounds:
1) add a hit.offset property
2) add new api : GetPagedHits (in string search, in int PageStart, in
int PageEnd, out aav results) or similar
3) add a hit.pagesize property and have GetNextpage/getPrevPage methods
Anyway we desperately need this to make things fast otherwise putting a
huge result set over dbus is gonna be awfully slow
