We want to render search results in something that looks like a roster except that each flag links to a specific title.

Now let's see if we can construct a search box that will take advantage of the "transport" capability of its form implementation. See About HTML Plugin
Oh, this almost works. json
I tried to write a simple cgi that would fake a search result but I couldn't get the POST preflight CORS right in the time I devoted to this example. Note: The HTML plugin translates all form behavior, including method GET, into XHR POST with JSON arguments.
I wanted to use cgi in this example because they are easier to keep running for long periods. Sinatra seems to get the preflight right as I am using the same ajax approach in the Search plugin itself. github
