Minor feature, but I think it'd be nice.

When I open the web interface, and click search, I can type in an artist, album, etc and generally get exactly what I was expecting.

I just happened to try entering a Playlist name and got nothing.

I'd think in that case, it'd be nice to include playlists that match your search string as well.

I assume you mean Panel when you say Web Interface.

That is a good idea. When I search in MC Standard View, matching Playlist names are included in the suggestions in a separate group. So it would be reasonable for Playlists to show up in the search results in Panel.

Yes, Sorry I used the wrong name for it.

I haven't used Panel much in the past but I've found increasing uses for it recently.

It's actually quite nice to work with on the whole.

Yes, it is. Even better when you build specific Views for it, which I have done a little of. But I still use remotes mostly.

It would be nice if Panel had a good Search Wizard in it, like the one in Standard View. Gizmo can search using the MC Search Language, but a user has to know field names and type in the expression by hand. There is no assistance.

I think this can go on the list of search improvements for Panel.
