Lightbulb Search Queue

KUDOS to the engineering team for Mac v 2.0. Much more stable (haven't crashed yet), and the preferences are now stored. Thanks!

I'd like the ability to create and manage a list of items for searching. For example... at the moment I'd like to find the music theme from Ken Burns' Civil War documentary, called "Ashoken Farewell". So, I searched for it and found no hits.

It would be great if, after not finding it, I could add that to a search queue. Mostly, it would be a convenient "shopping list" for me, though it could actually be more useful if there were some search queue management features, such as...
<ul>
<li>Search on term for XX seconds, if no hits are found, put that term back in the "search queue" and move on to the next term in the list.

<li> Renew search on unfound terms after XX minutes.

<li> Remove item from list after XX unsuccessful searches (options include)

<li> Remove item after found? (I collect multiple versions of songs, i.e., the same jazz standard by Sinatra, Torme, and Cole, so sometimes I want to search again, even though I found it before.)

<li> Create a "priority search" for items that were previously found but not downloadable. For example, let's say I find the tune I want at 123.45.678.90 and after several attempts, I get the "couldn't download" message. I'd like to add that to the search queue, along with the IP address. Then next time I sign on, the search would go directly to that server. (I'm not sure this is practical given the infrastructure, but it seems like it would reduce network traffic by targeting a high probability source for the search.)
</ul>

Thumbs up good Idea

Good Idea!!
I'm not into civil war documentary soundtracks or anything, but I am into punk, and its hard to find stuff like Osker, and Wizo when they are on 2 of the biggest punk labels around. I would like limewire to automatically re-search for songs that either couldn't download, or band searches that found nothing. because users are signing on, and off all the time, maybe someone out there has what I'm looking for.
