Description libing wang CLA 2012-10-18 15:52:46 EDT 
A lot of time when my search returned a lot of results, I had to use browser level search to find something  I am really interested.
I am wondering if we can have something in the search result page, like a  input field, while you are typing it narrows down the files from the 40 results.

this is purely a thought but  I wanted to think about it in 2.0M1.
Comment 2 Susan McCourt CLA 2012-10-18 20:23:42 EDT 
if you can expand all/browser level search and find what you want, I don't think that's a bad thing.

I think adding a filter text box on the search result page on right hand side is a better idea. This will decrease the number of results while user is typing.
