Joanie - here is a follow up webrev that cleans up some of the logic and
removes some duplication. It doesn't address your focus issue , this
will be handled separately.
Padraig has a proposal to give the user a Ctrl-L option to move focus to
the list, if we stick with focus remaining in the Search field after
search has completed (9858 Focus not in package list after search). We
will also ensure that during search the keyboard keys are disabled (9859
Focus in PM can still be changed via keyboard during a search).

9710 PM search should return results incrementally
Thanks,
JR

Hi - here is a webrev to provide incremental search results, in the same
fashion as the CLI. There is still a pause for some searches before
getting any output, but we are just waiting for a response from the
server and there is nothing we can do on our side about that.
Not ideal, but understood.
Joanie hopefully this should improve the user experience.
It does as far as I'm concerned. :-) Especially on the longer searches.
Thank you!!
I am only
hooking in the accessibility info to the results when we have the full
list (same as we do now) for performance reasons hopefully this is ok.
I tested it with Orca (moving focus to the list of results after it had
been fully populated) and the results were presented correctly. I
haven't yet found a way to move focus into the list of packages during a
search. So I suspect that no ATs will be asking for accessibility info
prior to your having the full list. If I discover otherwise, I'll let
you know. :-)
Take care.
