   In the control returned to the client, the
   size MAY be set to the server's estimate of the total number of
   entries in the entire result set.

So a client could evaluate this size value whether it's greater than 0 and take
this as indication how many search results would be returned (and e.g. display
it to the user).

I'm asking myself whether slapo-noopsrch would be the right place for handling
this.

The no-op search control returns two distinct values for search results and
search continuations though.
