This might indeed have been a reasonable design, but it's not what is
documented in devel/schemata. So it depends which expectations I guess.

Currently we do not fix the query in question to be a list of
id's, so I guess it would conform to the current spec to outpu
t some
other kind of query that needed to be parsed. I don't forsee doing that,
though, so perhaps in the long term we can make this change.

It would require potentially adjusting the emacs front end and any other
client relying on the JSON format, so it's not a completely trivial
change.

Thanks for your suggestion,

David
