Hi Kovid, thank you so much for implementing FTS. It works like a charm!
Use case for pausing the query would be, at least for me as a laptop user (often on battery and power saving mode, which limits CPU performance), to be able to browse through the results more "staticly", like reading a book. I know I'm not making myself much clear, so I've attached a screenshot...
Exporting the results after the long-running queries would serve that purpose as well.
