Description
Hi,
When you search, there are a lot of things that seem to duplicate things. What is the difference in searching in Collectives and it's pages etcetera? Maybe we can just stick to searching in Talk, Collectives, ...
I understand you might want to allow searching 'just' in the names of collectives, or just in the names of talk rooms, but that is already available in the sidebars of both apps, and it clutters this dialog a ton. Plus, it seems a real corner case to me.
