I'll admit when I first filed the bug report I didn't think that it was really too serious an issue, but thinking on it I can see quite a number of occasions were potentially inappropriate content could be shown to a user that doesn't want to or didn't expect to see it. And it certainly must be considered that NSFW content is called Not Safe For Work for a reason, and that being that you can lose your job for it appearing on your computer.

For some situations that it may be a problem: penis, vagina, breasts are all scientific terms and not inappropriate words and its not inconceivable that files are stored on computers containing these words in medical workplaces and educational institutions, and the presence nsfw content may be unacceptable.

 Tits are a subspecies of birds

Its not unreasonable to think that many peoples nickname for their pet cat is Pussy Cat and they could have photos with that name, but typing that will definitely bring up adult content.

If you have files on a customer whose first name is Dick you will also come across nsfw content.

Another problem is that the search doesn't occur when you press enter it searches as you type, so any word that begins tit...... may bring up nsfw content, as might typing cockerel.
