Search for discussion threads (Community Wishlist/W263/en)
Appearance
Long-term opportunity
Description
Searching for two or more terms in discussion pages returns a lot of noise you have to comb through and ignore, because it returns all pages that contain the search terms, even if no thread contains all of the terms. This makes it difficult to find out e.g. "In which discussions have this user and this user interacted?"
There should be a CirrusSearch parameter/filter that specifies the minimum heading level where all keywords must appear, e.g. toclevel=2, which limits the results to pages where all keywords appear under the same == ... ==. If multiple sections on one page match, each section is given a separate link in the results.
