Otherwise I will still have to wait when I scroll up again after some time. I'm not sure if Nautilus does that either; maybe it's just the plenty of cores that give you that idea :-)
Nautilus does, and it's also what I meant, sorry bad wording.
So a tight coupling with Tracker seems like a good idea.I don't see those as connected. Tracker could just send messages to the index server which then acts on its work queue as described above.
Yes. I just wanted to point out what kind of control Tracker needs.
I would also move MIME type identification from the registrar to that server.
Good idea. There are some bugs in that area (concurrent mime sniffing can crash registrar, there is a ticket), and it is not good for such an important component to crash. The functionality that doesn't absolutely have to live there should live elsewhere.
