Those types of searches are up to you. We included a basic site-wide
search feature so you could fairly easily replace the old Solr or Verity
plugins w/o losing functionality. For more complex filtering you could
either override the form component, custom types or webskins and implement
the functionality as you need. We could never build enough filters for
every need so that part is up to the individual developer. You can also
create search forms for a specific content types (think of an ecommerce
site having a product search for example).
Your example for filtering by category looks spot on though. You could
override the type & method and add that functionality, then override the
webskins and add a category field and you would be done.
