SUMMARY
It would be nice to restrict KRunner's file search results to a certain subset of results/folders whenever the user is using a certain KActivity. When I am studying a given subject there normally is only a "Unit 4", but Baloo may return more results given that my other subjects could perfectly have had files named that way as well (and return them in an instance which I don't need them).

I would like to somehow "tell" the search results which files to show me according to the KActivity I am using at that particular moment (provided the files are indexed in the first place). In my particular case, my subjects are separated by folders so it would be a matter of selecting the folder to show in this or that moment.
