Bug Description
You can search on just about everything using LPs advanced search, yet you can not search on heat.
heat is present and the output table of a search can be sorted by heat.
Heat is a number used to rank activity/interest.
Heat is calculated by LaunchPad.
There's really no reason why you should not be able to search based on at least the number of lit flames.
Better would be a numeric heat range, or a > or < certain level, but at the least, being able to search only for high heat bugs, or bugs with 3 or more flames lit would be useful for reporting purposes, etc.

Hi, Jeff.
Thanks for the bug report!
Do you find that doing a search and then sorting on bug heat doesn't show you the high heat bugs? This is why we didn't make this part of search originally was just that the common case seemed to be discovering bugs or sorting searches with this, and generally, I think people are happy with this.
Having said that, I would certainly entertain the idea of this and help see an elegant solution for this is merged. I don't think anyone would work on this from the Launchpad bugs team itself, given other priorities, but I would be happy to mentor someone who wanted to try adding this to Launchpad bugs search. I suspect this is trickier to do then it seems on the surface, too.
Cheers,
