It depends on what you are looking for.  Searching for duplicates is
tricky if it uses just plain text, because in many cases it's not
clear what text to search for.  And even in other cases, a lot of my
searches hit uninteresting parts of the report body, e.g. the part
that describes the system/Emacs configuration and linked-in libraries.
A search that ignores certain parts of the reports, and generally is
more intelligent about those parts, would be a significant
improvement.
