Re: SearchAction vs FindAction, and OpenSearch totalResults equivalent

Thanks Jarno, I think I’ll go with that one: 

 SearchAction -> result -> ItemList -> itemListElement -> ListItem -> Thing

I’ll add some non-schema properties for offset/current page and consider the problem solved :)

I have updated my blog post with a new example:

Something that wasn't possible to express until some months ago because there wasn't a 'mainEntityOfPage' property. Meaning the only way one could make it clear to search engines which entity they should consider being the 'main entity' was to model the graph so that the 'main entity' also was the top level entity.
