Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

1. You want to abstract an interface for the query ProcessDefinitionSearch so you can customize the query interface
2. Because operate may not be official, it is self-developed
3. Abstract an interface is also easy to extend. It is also convenient to implement the query interface by itself
4. ProcessDefinitionSearch is a runtime thing and should not be associated with a specific application

This abstraction is currently not planned but you could make use of Spring @Primary annotation to provide your own implementation. Moving it to backlog for now.

@sbuettner So far, it's self-actualized. It's just not necessary to implement all of oprerate. That's why you want a layer of abstraction where you know exactly what to implement
