+1 - this halves the search time for me and gets us to a comparable level with the CLI doing a ::description:*term* search.

I would like to explore ways of making the Search All Repos more versatile for post 2009.06. Allowing the user to put in a search string which is compatible with the CLI would be one approach:

ENH: 8299 In PM make Search All repos more flexible

So have in the Search combo:

Current Repository (Name and Description)
Search All Repositories (Description Only)
Search All Repositories


Search all repos: term would be equiv to:
$ pkg search <term>

Then a user could play around with adding terms such as:
Search all repos: *term*
Search all repos: ::description:*term*

And so on.

8289 PM search against all repos is x5 slower than the CLI

The fix is to search against description only and not against fmri.
