Thank you.

OK, thank you.

Maybe something like
    https://trac-hacks.org/wiki/XmlRpcPlugin
could help. But I wouldn't concentrate on this right now. The existing
implementation does the job. Not in an efficient way, maybe not super
reliably, but there are other things with higher priority to do first.
This could be addressed after the other important stuff has been
implemented.

Awesome. The search inside maintainer and category are really helpful.

At some point (but not now) we could add search through descriptions
and long descriptions as well, and to some extent group subports (some
experiments would be needed to figure out how to present that data in
a nice and useful way).

Regarding maintainers I left some notes in the PR.
