--- Comment #2 from Frank Steinmetzger <dev-...@felsenfleischer.de> ---
Hehe, I see. OK, then let’s see if we can accommodate everyone.

The easiest way would be to display the text inside the main view, as I
mentioned with my Dolphin reference. Perhaps not show it in the centre of the
screen, but on the topleft, so it can easily be found with the eyes, because
photo management screens tend to be large.

This would even allow for a progress message like “Searching …” — but only in
case the query takes longer. Otherwise we would risk constantly flickering text
when browsing through albums.

So as a step-by-step:
10 user selects album
20 wait for result, but one second maximum (arbitrary value, the actual
best-fitting duration should be determined in experiments. It should prevent
annoying distraction of the eye when clicking through albums)
30 search result available? → display result or message “This album is empty.”
or “The search returned no results.”. End.
40 no result yet? → Display “Searching ...” message and wait for result
indefinitely.
50 Result is available, goto 30
