Search/merge scans of other computers #489

After running spyglass on multiple computers, it would be useful to publish/share databases, e.g. on a common network file share or other protocol (WebDAV etc).

The spyglass client could then allow you to search and report the computer(s) and paths that match.

This would be useful when you know you have a file/doc but can't remember which folder AND which computer it's on.

you might want to check out syncthing (search on github)

Using syncthing on an sqlite database may be a bad idea, at least if you don't make sure to perfectly synchronize everything before you start up spyglass on another machine, though a networked filesystem may work?
