Add a search field to the BugsGrid. about fedora-packages

Will we need a second xapian database for indexing bugs? (I think we will).

I was thinking it could possibly be done in two ways…

• Add a method to the BugzillaConnector and modify the Grid widget to add a custom filter field
• Try and do it purely in JavaScript. Basically do the 'Show all bugs' query, and then only show bugs that match the filter

Didn't think about a second xapian db, but that would probably work too.

Well, a second xapian DB is nice because it would significantly speed up queries. Queries to existing RHBZ are slow.

I vote we put this ticket on hold indefinitely until the broader RHBZ issue for Fedora is resolved.

Hm, just a thought. We could achieve this with a "quick hack" just by creating a search field that redirects the user to bz.rh.com when they hit "submit". 📉
