This works on embedded PDFs. We would need to rewrite the URL in search
results to include the query terms. Here's an example (it works on Windows
using the Firefox plugin from Acrobat 7):

This is perhaps better handled by a more general mapping mechanism 
(parmeterised by
document type as well as path), since there could well be similar requirements 
for
other document types or other plugins.

Also it presumably only does anything useful if people have the right thing 
installed
client side? Hopefully it does the right thing if they don't?

Perhaps this is another quality that could be added to the list of file filters 
- how
to open results of this type. See #188 and #110
