\section2 Plugin Initialization
- A \l Plugin is an abstraction for a backend. One \l Plugin might access places from a REST server
- while another may access places from a local database. The following instantiates a Plugin element
- by providing a name of "nokia". The Plugin name identifies which backend to choose from.
- Note that different Plugin backends may have different nuances and behaviours, refer to
- the \l {Plugin references and parameters}{Plugin References} for these details.

\section2 Searching
Searching is accomplished via the \l PlaceSearchModel. To instantiate a \l PlaceSearchModel we
