in oral discussions i sugessted havin a real search page like in FE. So
simple search is done with the search field in toolbar, but it would be
cool to have a link beside/beyond search field for advanced search.
Then a page could be opened with a big search form and all the options
for search, and sure, search for files should be a point too.
Also i dislike the behaviour at the moment: you enter 100 and you are
redirected to page module, page with id 100.
I would like to have a result page grouped by record types (page,
tt_content, news and other plugins)
BTW - there is also kind of this in Tools->DB check (The name sounds
like only checking DB, but behind it's a real power tool, but admin only)
This of coarse are my wishes and i think this could be a goal for 4.4.
And i agree to change the magnifier to binocular icon. Jens suggested
that long time before, and it's also used by rtehtmlarea.
