Oh, there it is! It was just kind of weird that it wasn't along witth
the tracker, that looks more like a general search box :-)
Now, if I could combine this with filtering, I would be completely
satisfied :-)

Well, that's still only 37 on that page :)

But a working search function takes care of a lot of the issues I've
seen with large number of items on the lists. It just gets impossible to
find. I even had that problem with pginstaller, which certainly doesn't
have a lot of entries in its trackers.
