bzimport raised the priority of this task from to Low.Nov 21 2014, 10:36 PM
bzimport added a project: MediaWiki-Search.
bzimport set Reference to bz17734.
bzimport added a subscriber: Unknown Object (MLST).

If done, remove the note "Try prefixing your query with all: to search all content" on MediaWiki:Nonefound.

"All" and "None" were added to the "Advanced" tab, so only "Reverse" is left.
"Other special pages" is way too generic to be useful, removing from this bug.

I don't think we should put an inverse button here. If anything, we need to be making this tab less cluttered.
