:::: One of my gripes would be that its hard to find multiple words. For example, 'Restart Firefox'. Google for ""Restart Firefox" site:addons.mozilla.org", an extension called Restart Firefox is #1. Search on AMO and its #17. This causes problems for authors who didn't choose a single-word name for their add-on. There are multiple issues here: there is no way to search for a phrase, the score for a search result doesn't go up if the terms appear in order, theres no word stemming... adding support for phrases is doable with your sql backend, but incorporating a 'real' search engine would cover all of the issues.
