      Invoked each time a matching ConnectorObject is returned from a query request.
      Parameters:
      connectorObject - The matching ConnectorObject.
      Returns:
      true if this handler should continue to be notified of any remaining matching ConnectorObjects, or false if the remaining ConnectorObjects should be skipped for some reason (e.g. a client side size limit has been reached or the failed to handle the last item). If returns false the last items should be considers unhandled and in next page request it should be the first item.
