Public bug reported: When I click on searching in nautilus a down arrow appears on the right (next to the input field). If I click on this arrow, a pop up menu appears with "When" and "What" titles. Inside "What" I can choose file types. Choosing a certain file type nothing happens, nautilus shows the hits for every file type. This search option doesn't seem to work. (For "Full Text" see Bug #1767817)
