Correct.

This is not so easy, since every queriable could have a different API for
searching. A queriable always describes a search schema. From this search
schema you can build a query mapping that is passed into the search()
function of the queriable. I think you best bet would be to choose the
default value for each field. Here some untested code:
user_ids = []
for name, queriable in pau.getQueriables():
q = {}
for n, f in queriable.schema.namesAndDescriptions():
q[n] = f.default
user_ids += list(queriable.search(q))
users = [pau.getPrincipal(id) for id in user_ids]

Stephan
