TB is currently discussing smilies, yet we have a much bigger technical/functional problem on our hands: the new IB search sucks.

Take a look over in Technical Issues; it is nearly unanimous (actually, it is unanimous).
Why isn't this a TB issue to be discussed and debated, along with feedback from members? If smilies, a functional issue, is under TB purview, why not search? This is the main question I have. The bit about search sucking I'm sure will be worked out over time with the technical group.
