Jones: Bugzilla 4.2 – what’s new – searching
On his blog, Byron Jones explains the new features of Bugzilla 4.2, focusing on the revisions to search functionality: "a major change between bugzilla 4.0 and bugzilla 4.2 comes in the form of changes to searching. the searching implementation in 4.2 was rewritten from scratch, removing some seriously convoluted code and adding a large amount of test cases." The changes include search result limiting, changes to relative time operators, and more consistent complex queries.

Jones: Bugzilla 4.2 – what’s new – searching Posted Jul 13, 2012 17:15 UTC (Fri) by frazier (guest, #3060) [Link]
Search was a HUGE problem with Bugzilla about five years ago, especially with non-technical users. If I remember correctly, I got around this (to some degree) with saved searches I'd build for people.
