To add such a function, the following points should be noted:
1. should online listings allow reverse search by default ?
2. adding the reverse search after the first search has failed requires an
internal refactoring so that errors that occur during the first search are not
forwarded directly to the application and thus already trigger error
processing.
3. a simpler alternative to 2. would be to manage a list of currency
assignments in the online source, which is used to control the direction of a
query.
