I've retested everything here and in my installation and it seems that this solves all cases re: grouping, ordering, and paging.

I think case (1) (and maybe cases (3) and (4)) is resolved at HEAD.

D14846 should fix the package case, but I'm going to leave this open for followup work: Files, Pastes, Maniphest should get indexes; and we should replace the powerful systems in Projects and People.

As general infrastructure cleanup, I would like to split the existing SearchEngine and DestructionEngine components apart...
As part of this cleanup, we should also fix T9890.

Maybe IndexEngine is a better name than FulltextEngine.

Upshot is that this seems very promising to me. I think the pathway forward here is something like:

Okay, here's a query script:

I created an ngrams table like this:

Try the dedicated table on the files dataset and see how happy MySQL is about that (if it's better but still not great, we might still do this in conjunction with bigrams/trigrams).

Thanks for thinking through all of these! Let me know if there is anything I can help with.

at least, I think I converted it all the way.

Phame is on ApplicationSearch, so the bug is something else.

I couldn't think of any non prototypes. Dashboards recently got them.

Some SearchEngines don't provide any fields.

We should always have something to search, otherwise there isn't a reason to use application search.

In related tasks:

Thanks for the report!

We don't plan to pursue this in the upstream. Recommend subscribing to the Changelog to keep up with when things leave prototype.

T5307 discusses finding some way to fit "Export to spreadsheet.." -- and various other options -- into the UI in the general case.

We're vanishingly unlikely to redesign search results in the general case, and this request isn't compatible with responsive "object" list search results.

Diffusion, Pholio, Differential and Maniphest now support generic, full-power modern project filtering. I think that covers all the applications we're aware of significant interest in for this feature. It will come to other applications as they get modernized and updated over time.

Looks like you've got the other half of this.

well ?.

Oh, well the "upside down" part at least.

yeah this is 100% me

• Using ApplicationSearch here is roughly 8 hours of work.
• We'd like to ship that first and see how it feels, but if we need to provide separate ordering/filtering for queries in this dialog vs queries in general that's probably 2-3 hours.

Ah, thanks! I'm just going to merge that here since I think this is more complete than that one, now.

The other task that had this discussion is T4002: The "Edit Dependencies" dialog should use the saved search architecture.

We don't know if you'd be able to see them (vpn, policies). There is a task somewhere.

On an unrelated note... Is there a reason why {Fxxx} doesn't show the image content in emails?

It is terribly hidden.

Oh wow, I've never seen that before.

We should probably surface this better?
