Description
Currently when you search for a movie or tv show. It will check to see if content is already available. But you have to click Request before seeing this.
Once the request has been put in. It will retain the knowledge of previous downloads.
Wondering if we can do an initial sync of content so if a user is typing to request content, they will already see that it is downloaded without having to click Request.
This currently works if there is a previous request for the same item from another user.
I am just looking for this same functionality if there haven't been any previous request.
This data could also be shown in another tab to allow users to report issues on existing content. I added a feature request for this as well.
What might be easier is instead of creating a new tab. If a user searches and finds existing content. It could present them with the option to report issue. This would add very little changes to the UI compared to the above suggestion of a new tab.

Research direction
Start by tracing the existing search and request flows, then identify where data from Couch and Sonarr is checked after a request. Compare that path with searches for content that has no prior request. Done should make already-downloaded content visible during search and clarify whether issue reporting belongs in the same flow or a separate view.
