Can a user see somewhere, how sorting by "score" ACTUALLY affects the display of search results?
It may be helpful for users in order to understand the "score" sorting, when this is made transparent.
In other words: There may be a big difference between exclusive "author/name" (...) sorting and "score" sorting depending on what has been boosted in the background.
@jensopetersen:
In #39 we found, that title, name and subject information are currently highlighted.
This appears to be a very sensible choice as it works across all media types.
Whenever "score" is chosen from the "sort by" menu, the actual boosters could be displayed right next to it (or: at least in a help).
