The problem is, you don't know before sending a query to the catalog if
it is effectively an empty query or not.

For instance is searchResults(foobar=22, glob=[1,2]) an empty query ?
No ? Well, it is empty if you have no 'foobar' nor 'glob' index.

So there may be a need for some way to find out quickly if the catalog
decides an query is empty or not.
