Andy will know about any interaction between nnselect and the agent, but the search engines are pretty discrete from the rest of Gnus, and won't know about plugged/connected status. If your indexes are local (mairix, notmuch, namazu, local IMAP, etc) everything will work fine. If the indexes are remote (a remote IMAP server, for instance), then the search would time out. Ideally, if Gnus is unplugged, it would refuse to search remote servers at all. I don't actually know what happens right now.
