Ok, thanks. Just wanted to make sure it wasn't missed. And yeah, I've
wondered sometimes about how priorities work for different package
types. "important" for a bible program is different than for "mount" or
something more critical.
Though, checking the description in "reportbug", it says:
Important: a bug which has a major effect on the usability of a package,
without rendering it completely unusable to everyone.
Which I suppose is an appropriate description of a search feature.
I'm inclined to agree, so I've opened #1005868 to see if the release
managers will allow a fixed package into a future Stable update.

Matthew
