Ok, let's return to the very beginning. The Find/Add Contact dialog in 
Miranda is made that way: you enter a search parameter first, then a 
protocol plugin retrieves the result set and puts it to the special window, 
then you can click on every contact and add it to your contact list.

When a search is made by a nickname, first/last name or a e-mail, there're 
no problems - I send a search query, process the XML and all is Ok.

But for searching by JID I must provide a validator which will decide 
whether to put that JID to the search results window or not. So that's why I 
need all of that, cause previosly the entered JID was simply copied to the 
results window, and users complained that they might try to add something 
completely incorrect. I don't want to compile a list of users :)
