"intelligent" search plugins #42

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
with "intelligent" search plugins, their'd be a automatic detection which
engine to use based on the search terms.

For example, when a number is typed in, Bugzilla is searched. Search terms
ending with "\.js$", "\.cpp$" and so on would be sent to mxr.

This is kind of like search keywords, but automatic based on the content.

This would be rather complicated to implement, performance might suck with
many engines or bad regular expressions. And finally, most engines could
not be detected without re-introducing keywords. So it's questionable
whether this is really worth it.
