Support for drag-n-drop to the stored queries list. Dropping a file will create a query to look for similar documents. Dropping text will create a new query set to that text.
Search plugins may define editable parameters. Preferences let the user edit them and save assigned values to the configuration file. On the command line, pinot-search can also set those parameters.
A basic Xesam back-end based on xesam-glib is available and can be enable with configure's --enable-xesam-glib option.
Abstracts can be selected, copied and dropped onto the queries list to create new queries.
Abstract generation is less skewed towards common terms.
Very short non-CJKV terms are skipped when expanding queries.
Fixed the mangling of some CJKV queries.
