Another idea for slow response handling:

- Keep on sending a "Redirect URL" (204?)directive back to the client, until 
server is ready to ship back the whole search.

- The only thing that needs to be done is to add another line to "Redirect"
  response, maybe something like "Redirect-message:".

And this would require very little work on everyones part, except the server
which would have to keep track of the queries.
