Here's a present for you night owls -- courtesy of our very own
jotter, we now have a search that actually works
and is pretty fast. I'll be keeping an eye on this to see how it holds up, but I'm rolling it out right now. If you want to see how it works in more detail, you can
look at the helpful documentation while you're at it.
The old search behavior is still preserved for some things, like searching for stories and diaries with a blank search string, Author and Diary By searches, user searches, and Comments By searches. Searching for specific comments is, alas, disabled for now. If things work out well, though, we might be able to add those too.
