Interesting.  This was my first time looking at searchfs(), but it's deja vu of PBCatalogSearchSync() or PBCatalogSearchAsync(), especially the crazy structs / parameter blocks.  And yes, the PBCatalogSearch stuff does seem to be the *higher* level API, because they feature the asynchronous flavor, which searchfs() does not.
