Re: [PATCH v3 0/2] docs: advanced search with benchmark harness

Randy, I meant to include you on the v3 reroll; this new version is
intended to address the compatibility issue you hit earlier in our
initial test and debugging (among other improvements).
I believe the problem came from version-dependent differences in the
generated Sphinx search data, so this reroll hardens the compatibility
handling around those differences and the search logic that consumes the
data.
If you have time to try it again with the setup that exposed the
problem before, I would appreciate confirmation that the updated
version behaves correctly there.
I would also appreciate your broader assessment of the feature:
whether it seems genuinely useful in practice, how large the benefit is
relative to the current Quick Search interface, how many other users you
think would benefit from it, and whether you see any remaining issues or
obvious room for improvement.
