Since I already implemented it, I doubt it was me who suggested changing
it. :) But I remember someone said it would make it more complex to
allow multiple algorithms .. then again, to me the return option seems a
bit ugly/wrong place for it. Return options should control what is
returned from the finished search result, not change what messages
actually match the search query..
