If user does exactly know what resource (s)he is searching, "All" tab is used where query can be edited to show only tickets and milestones. IMHO, user usually knows what type (s)he needs (I believe, most of search is for tickets) and ,IMO, tabs make things easier and less confusing.
Each tab has it's own fields set. Combination of checkboxes and different grids can confuse. > what is the reason for using tables and columns to display search results ? The idea is that we combine free-text search and query. If we want to provide readable query result it can be possible to represent it as table. It is aslo consistent to existing TracQuery result view. > Is there any other search engine considered as a reference ? jira and youtrack return kind of table fro free text-search result.
