Bug Description

The status category has only three items and filters only three usable ones (don't know what search filter does, "broken" could be hidden when there are no broken packages). Furthermore, I often find myself switching back and forth between categories because I don't know in which category I can find some filter.

That's why I think usability would improve when merging these categories into one. The search result category could be merged too, because it's mostly empty and it would prevent having to switch categories after having done a search. The unified category could just carry the name 'filters'.
