Yes, but I thing it goes beyond that. A registry(ar) would say "we support
RFC 1 (lookup) and RFC 3 (searches) on the following objects ... using the
following elements ..."

I'm thinking the searches document should probably simply specify how to
do the searches on any single object, using any combination of its
respective elements/attributes. But it would be up to each registry(ar) to
choose which combination to support. Therefore, as someone else suggested,
there has to be a response that signals "search not supported" or
something similar.
