Comment 9 for bug 1152863

I'm chiming in because I'm really interested in seeing this come into reality myself. I have a good number of power users who could really benefit from this.

I have to agree with Dan about the all caps however. Mirroring Google's behavior = good when it's both the baseline I have for teaching people and it's the same (or very similar) they have a better chance of retaining the knowledge of how to do it since they may use it elsewhere.

I understand the concern about all caps searches but I think the advantages of doing it as Dan proposes outweigh in value what you get from accommodating those users searching in all caps. I don't know what the numbers are but most patrons are learning that caps = yelling and avoid it out of a sense of aesthetics as much as anything.

Plus, I would rather have a system wide searching behavior than it's behavior restricted to a single place you have to navigate to, I think that lessens the value of a valuable change.
