A nuxeo search form result layout can dynamically tell whether aggregations should be computed. For instance, on the nuxeo-default-search-form.html, if aggregations should not be computed if the full text parameter is not set, you can add the following

skipAggregates: { type: Boolean, notify: true, computed: '_skipAggregates(params.*)' }

where

_skipAggregates : function() { return !this.params || !this.params.ecm_fulltext || this.params.ecm_fulltext.length === 0; },

Story Points:
1

When opening the search drawer for the first time, user must wait for the first query to complete before being able to actual search for something.

This is costly for several reasons:

computing aggregates on all the content of a large repository is costly and long on the elasticsearch side (30s on a 500M doc repository without user concurrency)
making user wait before being able to search is poor UX

This is not the same things as disabling auto search. This issue iss only about opening the drawer for the first time after login.

Proposed solution (Tiago)
Allow attribute on search to disable first call, as this call server the porpose of getting ES buckets.
