As time elapses, more and more of the features attached to the "search"
component are likely to be implemented in the advanced F&R, but still be
missing in the simple search facility.
As of now, this forbids closure of corresponding bugs (in a few of them
there is the "as we'll keep using the simple search facility as I hope,
this is not completely closed..."). IMHO, if a particular type of
searching facility is available in the advanced F&R (i.e., searching in
notes, searching in maths, searching with regexps, searching for styles,
wrap options, scope options), then the feature should be considered as
available to the user, and the bug closed. Otherwise, the trac tickets
on the topic are going to become quickly useless for tracking down what
needs to be down (for the F&R stuff). Duplicating tickets for the two
cases does not seem to be appropriate either, nor it does duplicating
functionality (IMHO).
What is the others' opinion on this ?
