As long as I can remember, search has always treated searches such as

If you want to limit your search to filesystem names (directories and
files), you have two options, either start the pattern with a leading
'/' and include the full path to the item you're searching for or use

It seems like there are a LOT of options and possibilities with this
subcommand.
The length of the current pkg manpage, makes it somewhat unusable. It
would be really nice if subcommands were split off. ie: man pkg_search,
or some such, a la "man mkfs_ufs" and so on.
Hey, pkg(1) is still about 1,100 lines less than zfs(1M) 8)
